Editorial Review: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, and describes a few of the thousands of powerful personal breakthroughs that are being achieved by therapists, doctors and lay people praticing these techniques. The Genie in Your Genes shows that there is a sound theoretical framework, based on credible experiments, for understanding these astonishing results, and predicts that the insights of Epigenetic Medicine will dramatically advance the fields of both medicine and psychology in the coming decade. Best of all, The Genie in Your Genes demonstrates that, by taking control of our consciousness and using it to influence our genetic expression, we can sometimes bypass years of therapy, as well as harmful drugs and invasive surgeries, to, in effect, do continuous genetic engineering on our own bodies. This can produce both immediate relief from long-standing anxieties and neuroses, as well as "miraculous" healing of persistent physical conditions, especially autoimmune diseases. Among a new crop of books that chart the way to a positive health future, The Genie in Your Genes stands out as a solidly grounded and exciting pointer to the future possibilities of a medicine that links soul to body and mind.

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!! ... Read More

The Genie in Your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention
In The Genie in Your Genes Dawson Church, Ph.D., founder of Elite Publishing, eloquently explains the genius built into the 'texture' of our semi-conductive cells and genes, a smart technology, which allows 'learning while experiencing' by using cellular memory to store information for intelligent use later on.
This smart technology couples with DNA's inherent intelligence gained through evolution, to ... Read More

Finally! a book that powerfully presents the mechanics of the processes that every dedicated practitioner of such sacred technologies as Qigong, Tai Chi, Yoga, meditation, and contemplative prayer has benefited from for the last couple of thousand years!
Ever since I began studying DNA genetics, I couldn't help but wonder why nature would go to all the trouble to embed the entire genetic code of every organism on the planet within the nucleus of every single one of it's cells. It mattered little ... Read More

Reviewed by Andrey Bilko for RebeccasReads (08/09)
"The Genie in your Genes" by Dawson Church is a captivating introduction into the field of epigenetics, which has to do with effects on the phenotype or physical appearance and on gene expression by the outside factors that have nothing to do with changing the DNA sequence itself. Non-genetic factors like stress and other psychological influences can affect gene expression and cause genes to behave differently. In the past, the scientific community ... Read More
