Epigenetics, a cutting-edge new science that studies how our gene expression is influenced and changed by a whole host of factors—from diet, exercise, and mindfulness practices - to environmental factors and lifestyle modifications as well.
NOTE: This is an excerpt from a 30-minute DVD. http://www.thinkingallowed.com/2nherbert.html The mysteries of sub-atomic physics offer us startling new perspectives on the human mind. Physicist Nick Herbert, Ph.D., author of Quantum Reality, points out that no matter how one interprets the equations of quantum physics the results lead to amazing and paradoxical concepts. Perhaps that time runs backwards as well as forward. Perhaps multiple independent universes are created each second.
Just because consciousness is a mystery and quantum theory is mysterious, it doesn't mean they're connected.
