Author Dawson Church applies the insights of the new field of Epigenetics (epi=above, i.e. control above the level of the gene) to healing. Citing hundreds of scientific studies, he shows how beliefs and emotions can trigger the expression of DNA strands. He focuses on a class of genes called Immediate Early Genes or IEGs. These genes turn on within a few seconds of a stimulus. They can be triggered by thoughts or emotions ("I loved that unexpected gift of roses Bill gave me" or "I'm so mad about what Uncle John said at the Christmas party"). Many IEGs are regulatory genes turn on other genes that affect specific aspects of our immune system, such as the production of white blood cells that destroy attacking bacteria and viruses. Epigenetics thus influences our health every day. He coins the new term "Epigenetic Medicine" to describe healing techniques with epigenetic effects. He also summarizes the science behind the infant fields of Energy Psychology and Energy Medicine, both of which offer promising epigenetic medical therapies.

I was delighted to see such a comprehensive, informative and enlightening approach to energy medicine.
As an acupuncturist and herbalist I know that energy medicine and holistic care need to be integrated into Western medicine to resolve our health crisis. Drugs, stress, toxic environments and foods are ruining us. Western medicine only offers to mask the symptoms and by default the health of our society worsens decade to decade.
No one explains energy medicine better!!
His thorough, yet easy to understand chapters? discuss the mechanisms and how to?s of several protocols. I am not a rocket scientist so I was happy that I could easily follow and understand some of the more complex theories.
This book not only discusses the A-Z?s of energy medicine but gives history, research and how to?s.
It is stacked with scientific proof and experiments that amazed me.
I liked that the chapters were broken out clearly and concisely. It gave me a clear understanding of how these modalities started, how they are used and what there potential could be to improve patient health care.
This book is a great reference and informational resource for anyone dissatisfied with their current state of emotional or physical health.
It is a great tool for western physicians, health care workers, alternative practitioners, and the public.
The references and index section are extraordinary.
I can?t count the number of dog eared pages I have. Pages I want to go back to re-read, to draw from and to share with others. I learned a lot personally and professionally. Teachings that I want to share with family, other professionals, and patients.
This is a very meaningful work that can not only change minds, but changes lives.
