In this episode, Andrew explores how the body remembers our choices and environment. Genes are expressed or silenced through a process called Epigenetics. This episode explores some of the implications of epigenetics, healing, and holiness.

Notes
Epigenetics ("Epi" = Over) - Gene expression
Introduction to Epigenetics - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_aAhcNjmvhc
"There is also a section of Epigenetic expressions that are affected by our choices and environment. We have power over which of our genes express themselves and which of our genes are silenced."
Examples:
Exercise and Addiction - A 2018 study published in Frontiers of Psychiatry found that a group doing moderate exercise 5 days a week for 30 minutes experienced epigenetic changes that reinforced abstinence from alcohol - https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyt.2018.00594/full#h3
Mother to Child - A 2016 article published in the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry found an association between maternal diet and methylation of genes associated with hyperactive symptoms - https://acamh.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/jcpp.12589
Father to Child - A 2014 study published in the journal, Nature Neuroscience found that epigenetic markers associated with metabolic and behavioral were passed on from father to child - https://www.nature.com/articles/nn.3695
"The good news is you can change! If your genes can be switched in ways that are unhelpful for you, they can also be switched back."
Genotype + (Actions + Environment) = Phenotype
