I listened to a lecture by Bruce Lipton last night--which totally blew my mind. If you are interested in the mind body connection--listen to this lecture. In the 1960s he discovered that cells' condition were not predetermined, but reactive to the environment.

He later took stem cells and observed that due to environmental conditions (not DNA manipulation), they changed into bone, fat or muscle tissue. What he has proven is that beliefs create emotions which change the chemistry of the body, which in turn tell the cells what to do. The DNA is the blueprint, containing the spare parts and information needed to rebuild the body-->but it is the proteins--which communicate directly with cell environment--the sensory organs of the cell--which then shape-shift in reaction to what is sensed--or PERCEIVED by the cell.

&feature=related ---this is a general explanation

--the longer biological explanation.

Here is his website:

I am in total awe today and wanted to share this with everyone here
