My guest today is Dr. Bruce Lipton, cellular biologist and author of The Biology of Belief: Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter, & Miracles. He also wrote two more books, The Honeymoon Effect: The Science of Creating Heaven on Earth in 2009 and with Steve Bhaerman Spontaneous Evolution: Our Positive Future (and a Way to Get There from Here)

Through the research of Dr. Lipton and other leading-edge scientists, stunning new discoveries have been made about the interaction between your mind and body and the processes by which cells receive information. It shows that genes and DNA do not control our biology, that instead DNA is controlled by signals from outside the cell, including the energetic messages emanating from our thoughts. Bruce repeatedly emphasised that genes contain the blueprint and the environment, of which of course consciousness is very much part of, is the architect and construction crew that builds who we become. He also asserts that if we use the 50 trillion cells that live harmoniously in every healthy human body as a model, we can create not just honeymoon relationships for couples but also a “super organism” called humanity that can heal our planet.
Bruce is no fan of pharmaceutical companies that vigorously resist the idea that one’s mind can control one’s body. A healing of the consciousness which is what Bruce advocates –is something the drug companies cannot sell for any price. The influence of the pharmaceutical companies is enormous, and so their refusal to accept epigenetics is a main reason many people have not heard of it. In fact, the drug companies  in some cases even affect the curriculum in medical schools. Bruce says, “You don’t need drugs. You have to change your consciousness because you already manufacture every equivalent of a drug right now.”
There's not one gene that causes cancer. Genes are correlated with cancer, but they themselves do not engage the cancer. It's a life out of harmony. That's a life with suppressed anger. It's a life where people are not living what they really want to experience or holding things inside is what initiates a cancer. 50% of the women that have the breast cancer gene never get cancer. Possession of the gene doesn't mean you get cancer. It's not living in harmony, and you want to know about not living in harmony, then I would direct everybody to your book, Thomas, because that's where it all started.
And we end on this note: "We're not the TV set, we're the broadcast. And all of a sudden, I said, Hey, I can't die. I'm a spiritual person. Why? Because I'm the broadcast. And the broadcast is always there."

My guest next week is Joan Koenig, a pioneering music educator, author of  The Musical Child and owner operator of famed Parisian L’Ecole Koenig-The American Conservatory. Joan will tell us how music can supercharge early childhood development—and how parents and educators can harness its power.
