In the course of evolution, people with certain genes fared better than others – and because they survived, they passed on their genes, making the general population more like them. For example, Europeans who came into contact with and yet survived the great plague did so because they had a genetic advantage over their neighbors. Because more of them survived to pass on their genes, their descendants tend to show that same genetic factor.

Unfortunately, a genetic advantage in one era or age (like the Ice Age) may be a killer in another (like now). More body fat in an Ice Age man made him more likely to pass on his genes; whereas today it could prevent him from doing so.

What genetic factors are a problem in your life? Do you have a predisposition for certain diseases or conditions (physically and psychologically)? How can you know which conditions or diseases are genetically affecting you? How can you make a change that has a higher probability of success on a genetic level – if it is possible at all?

There is a fundamental interaction between genetics and how our brains process the genetic information. We create and maintain brain circuitry based on a genetic blueprint modified by experience/learning (environmental factors). It's a delicate balance between nature and nurture. Neither genetics nor conditioning completely rule our life experience – rather, we experience the result of an interweaving between the two – kind of like the weaving of DNA.

To make a genetic change, we must make a FUNDAMENTAL choice to BE a different way than we have been in the past AND we must back it with environmental support. "How do we do that?" you might ask.

The first important factor here is in the sense of BEING. You must first choose to BE a different way and then back it up with committed ACTION (Doing). Then you'll HAVE a new genetic factor.

Do you want to be healthier? Then BE healthier in your mind and ACT upon that inner sense. For example, who would you BE if you were 20 pounds thinner? How would you feel? What would you BE then? Imagine that "sense" of BEING and then DO – act as if you ARE that way already. If you then look in the mirror and say to yourself, "Geez! I've been thinking thin but I'm just as fat as I was before…" – you've not yet taken on the BEING of thinness – you've only toyed with it; maybe tried it on, but have yet to BE thin in your mind.

Acting healthy means simply going with the sense of being thin. You don't have to work at this – you will enjoy it because it is natural to you. For example, a thin you might enjoy a brisk walk or modeling clothing in the mirror – so do it and KNOW in yourself that you ARE thin. After a while, your mind will start a chain reaction in all the cells in your body and they, too, will BE thin.

It's a good idea to get your physician behind you when it comes to body changes, though, as there is a lot you may not know about your own body that your physician might know better.

Want some assistance? Try Hypnotherapy, EFT, or Rapid Eye Technology – three natural change processes.

RET Technicians – MAKE SURE you include genetics in your work by simply stating now and then "Release it from every cell…" (releasing) and "blink it into every cell" (reframes) – and when closing the session, make sure you include the Release and Gather process to help the mind rewrite the genetic code. In effect, RET uses the brain to "speak" to every cell's genetic code in a natural and supportive way (through the body). Neither the technician nor the client need know the code – because the brain will do the proper translation if you ask it to do so.

It's in your genes – so take control TODAY. Naturally…
