I guess using the word "reversed" in brackets wasn't the way to explain what I meant. We are on the same page in essence I think as I interpreted Dr. Lipton to mean that we are not "doomed" by our genetics but in fact can influence our own makeup so that we are not a "victim" to the presence of a particular gene.

The emotional "work" is one of the major pieces that helps us to "change" the outcome so that the gene doesn't get "triggered". or put into play. He is a supporter, I believe, of EFT and similar emotional tools and talks about their importance in helping to shift beliefs.

I remember one trainer telling us that beliefs are only as strong as you choose to make them. They are ideas that we repeat to ourselves and then se sort for their confirmation in the "real world" and as we do that they get bigger and stronger and soon become the foundation stones that we build our conclusions upon.

And we forget that we may have gotten them through our history, our life experience, our teachers etc etc. and that in essence we are channeling them rather than deciding for ourself what we really want to believe and what we want to build our life experience around.

Golly this is getting heavy. Sorry about that. Take what you want and forget about the rest.
