Epigenetics – Of Undisputed Origin

A Change of Scene

We should challenge ourselves to create a vision of our future that is grander and greater than our current environment and circumstances. By Madeline Johnson

The best way to predict your future is to create it from the unknown.

– Dr. Joe Dispenza

Parts of me are very tired of my life. Some parts are bored, other parts are fed up and perhaps some parts very disappointed. That’s not to say I am a sad and disheartened person. Absolutely not. I am proud of some of my accomplishments and grateful for what I have. It’s just that I am not completely satisfied with where I am right now.

How about you? Are you where you want to be?

As Dr. Joe Dispenza explains, true change begins when we start to challenge old thinking and rewire our brains by learning something new.

My personal goals . . .

To overcome my subconscious thoughts
To modify my automatic habits and behaviors
To examine the emotions that drive my day
To script a new vision of my life

Read: Becoming Supernatural

I am tired of thinking the same thoughts, making the same choices, behaving in the same manner and reproducing the same experiences day in and day out.

I am challenging myself to create a vision of my future that is grander and greater than my current environment and circumstances.

Manifesting Your Reality

Don’t waste your thoughts worrying. Don’t give away your thoughts and don’t waste time thinking about what you don’t want to happen. By Madeline Johnson

Your thoughts have the power to change everything in your life. Everything you have in your life right now, started with a thought.

What you focus on with your thoughts, your mind will manifest as reality.

Sometimes our thoughts create realities that we have to overcome.

Every single thought we have is a unit of energy. Energy to create something new.

Don’t waste your thoughts worrying. Don’t give away your thoughts and don’t waste time thinking about what you don’t want to happen.

Invest in thoughts that are productive.

The next time you start obsessing about something, ask yourself . . .

Is this thought going to enhance my life

or take away from it?

Place your thoughts and energy behind that which will make you stronger, rather than wasting your thoughts on remorse about things that have fallen apart.

Conserve your thought energy to create more beauty, rather than manifest more pain.

The moment you change your perception is the moment you rewrite the chemistry of your body. Dr. Bruce Lipton, author of The Biology of Belief

How Much Good Can You Do In The World?

Do what you can to make things better. Find out how much good you can do in the world. By Madeline Johnson

Not my words, but definitely a great notion and something I believe is worth asking yourself.

This idea, that we have the capability to make things better with what we have is inspired by professor and clinical psychologist Jordan B. Peterson author of 12 Rules for Life.

His wisest advice –

Learn what you need to learn to become wise and work for the betterment of being.

Do what you can to make things better. Find out how much good you can do in the world.

Do it in a forthright, courageous, noble, eyes-wide open, articulate and embodied manner.

How to bake better into your every day beingness.

Not sure where to begin? I like what Brianna Wiest recommends. . .

Borda D. Adrian is a surreal painter and lives in Reghin, Romania. He is an inner traveler, exploring the mysterious and extremely complex subconscious world. In his real life as well as in his art, I don’t care about conventions and the taboos, there are no sacred memes that cannot be touched. His paintings are deep meditations full of symbols about life and our most intimate tendencies and reactions…not necessarily to create something most people like, but to open a window to haunting images impossible to forget.

Becoming Supernatural While Navigating a Greater End

Every thought we have is tangible energy with the power to transform.

Our purpose in life is not to please God or do the right thing or be perfect or look good.

Our purpose in life is to express divine intelligence through us.

We should look at the wisdom learned from the adversity in our lives to navigate a greater end.

Dr. Joe Dispenza (Becoming Supernatural)

Fascinated by the mind-body connection (how our thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and attitudes can positively or negatively affect our biological functioning), I am studying the power we have to manipulate a part of our genetic code through emotional states – and other things like nutrition, movement and relationships. What I am studying is something called epigenetics. Here, is a super brief explanation to help you understand what the field of epigenetics involves.

But, I prefer this analogy . . .

Think of the human lifespan as a very long movie. The cells would be the actors and actresses, essential units that make up the movie. DNA, in turn, would be the script — instructions for all the participants of the movie to perform their roles. Subsequently, the DNA sequence would be the words on the script, and certain blocks of these words that instruct key actions or events to take place would be the genes. The concept of genetics would be like screenwriting. Follow the analogy so far? Great.

The concept of epigenetics, then, would be like directing. The script can be the same, but the director can choose to eliminate or tweak certain scenes or dialogue, altering the movie for better or worse.

As a Man Thinketh

by James Allen

As a being of Power, Intelligence and Love, and the Master of his or her own Thoughts, every being holds the key to every situation, and contains within themselves that transforming and regenerative agency by which they may make themselves what they will.

Reigning in the Wild of My Mind

I awake each morning with some vague memory of my dreams. The next thing I know, my mind is everywhere and left unattended it races from worries about how I will get everything done today to past memories of arguments, problems and things left undone.

Meditation helps me reign in the wild of my mind and channel my thoughts and energy to bring forth what needs to be remembered.

We are all just one exhale away . . .

Life is short.

Give gratitude for the miracle of this fucking moment right now.

What helps me think better each day?

Some Stealth Metta

The Buddhist Metta (Lovingkindness) Prayer is simple but profound.

It starts by blessing oneself and gradually expands outward from there, eventually wishing good intentions for the entire world and all beings, even our enemies. There are many variations and translations of this prayer, but what follows is the essence of it; if we all said this prayer with sincerity at least once per week, the world could be a very different place . . .

My heart fills with with loving kindness. I love myself.

May I be happy. May I be well. May I be peaceful. May I be free.

May all beings in my vicinity be happy. May they be well.
