There is so much to love

The Chemistry of love

Dr. BruceLipton, Ph.d., cell biologist, the father of epigenetics, the author of many books, among which is ”The Biology of Belief”, which focuses on the science of how thoughts and feelings control our lives and not purely our genes.

In all biological organisms there is something referred to as the biological imperative. The biological imperative can not be found by biologists; there is no place they say oh here it is in the cells, but what it represents is a drive to survive when we start to feel that our life is threatened. It is not a conscious feeling at first, it is a gut feeling, it is visceral. Something in my gut says something is not right; this is the biological imperative looking at your potential future in the world we are living in. And what we really have to recognise is that people are feeling it in their guts the world in which we are living in is not right. This is wonderful because it is a feedback system which is saying that the world you are living in is not in harmony with you.

And therefore what it really means is that we have to change how we influence the world in our own way and it says that if we start to change and send out love, instead of just receiving fear, the love we send out has two aspects. Yes there is an external consequence of love, it influences everyone and everything around me. There is a profoundly different chemistry if I have a thought of love coming into my body which you can feel. When you are in love you can feel it. Yes, your cells are bathing in the chemistry of love, but when you have fear it is a different chemical response. It gets you girded up for response, protection, walling you off from the outside. I do not want that thing to come in and take care of my inside.

And I say, well what is the relevance? And the answer is very simple. The chemistry released by the brain in fear shuts down the growth mechanism of the body, shuts down the maintenance of the body to conserve energy. The biggest thing is, there is only one consequence and that is disease and illness. And it turns out that one percent of disease on this planet is connected to genetics and ninety percent of disease or more is lifestyle and the psychology of love and fear. Ninety percent. And it says ”be in love and your body will be maintained and your immune system will be at peak performance. Be in fear and the game is over”.
I wish all the readers a very Merry Christmas through this wonderful message from Winnie the Pooh, who very simply practises the Chemistry of Love.

Merry Christmas!
