“Place your hands into soil to feel grounded. Wade in water to feel emotionally healed. Fill your lungs with fresh air to feel mentally clear. Raise your face to the heat of the sun and connect with that fire to feel your own immense power.” (Victoria Erickson)

 

Did you know that your lifestyle affects your DNA? In fact, our DNA is being altered all the time by environment, lifestyle and traumatic events, and our choices will have an impact on future generations.

The latest scientific findings about how our genes are affected by lifestyle choices, the environment where we spend most of our time and also traumatic experiences in life. All these factors determine not only longevity, ageing, general health and well-being, but also leave a detrimental or beneficial legacy for our children and grandchildren.

Scientists at the University of Cambridge have discovered the biological mechanism for this effect, revealing that genetic faults caused by trauma, poor lifestyle or environmental stress can be passed down to future generations.
