Do you know the direct correlation between your emotions, thoughts, and perceptions of the world and how they affect your body?

Your body is the most valuable tool you have for interacting in this physical plane of reality, we’ve been talking about this in the last articles, and it is a reflection of your mental and emotional health. 

Such is its importance, that if you have a body that is not healthy, you will not be able to fully enjoy anything that you achieve or have in life.

Through your body, you are capable of enjoying the world surrounding you and having a human experience. 

This is the physical part of your inner self, the representation of your inner self here on Earth, and it is your function to look after it to enjoy this terrestrial experience to the maximum.

Doing exercise, resting, eating healthily, having a good time, and having positive thoughts and emotions are key aspects that define the basis for a healthy body. 

In fact, positive thoughts and emotions along with your lifestyle are the most important things in your physical health.

To a large extent, the correct functioning of your internal organs depends on the actions that you do continuously in your day-to-day and the emotions, thoughts, and beliefs you have. 

Your organs compile the information they receive to assist you in evaluating and making decisions.

And, it is very important to be aware of what information you are sending to your body, and specifically to your organs because it is through these stimuli that they react and help us act in this perceived reality.

It is okay to feel frustration, rage, nervousness, or fear at times because perhaps these emotions help us to improve certain aspects of ourselves or even face certain obstacles. 

However, it is best not to maintain these types of negative emotions for too long as they generate a series of chemical reactions in your body that cause an increase in acidity and this triggers the alarm state in the body segregating adrenaline and cortisol and sending them to different parts of the body, placing your organs on alert. 

In short, this state prepares you for fight or flight. 

It places you on total alert in the event of a situation that you perceive as a threat. 

This type of physical response is innate and its purpose is your survival. 

However, this physical state places your body in a situation that takes it out of its natural balance weakening your immune system, along with other consequences.

Our body is prepared to assume this type of alarm response, but not to live in this state continually. 

If this happens, physical problems may begin to appear, such as ulcers, digestive problems, anxiety, etcetera. That’s why it is very important to regain calm and balance in your body after you’ve experienced this alarm state in your body.

You are capable of harming your physical body if you constantly store toxic thoughts and emotions in your mind. 

Deepak Chopra said it very clearly in his book Journey into Healing, when he highlighted that we are the only creatures on Earth who can change our biology through how we feel and think. 

This is our great power, largely asleep and hidden behind a society that constantly restricts our search for answers and solutions outside, taking away the great internal power that every one of us has inside to achieve our well-being.

What Chopra said in his book is something that is demonstrated through epigenetics, the science that studies the interactions between genes and the environment surrounding them.

The term ‘epigenetic’ was coined in 1942 by the embryologist and geneticist, Conrad Hal Waddington, and then expanded upon by a multitude of cellular biologists, such as the internationally renowned Bruce Lipton.

Epigenetics scientifically shows us that our DNA is not what determines our cellular behavior.

In other words, we are not the victims of our genes, but rather our DNA can be modified depending on the environment to which it is subject. 

This environment in which it moves is created by our perceptions of the external signals, in other words, what we interpret and think of what is happening to us or around us.

Our genes adapt their expression depending on the stimuli we give them. 

Those stimuli which are a consequence of our external perceptions, are internally interpreted as thoughts and emotions, and finally physically transferred as electromagnetic charges carrying this information to all the cells in our body, and with that, the behavior and expression of our genes are determined.

So, if those stimuli received by our cells are negative and toxic, our cells will sicken because it is simply what they are receiving from the outside and they will do whatever is necessary to align with that environment.

Epigenetics demonstrates that those who are ultimately responsible for our health and well-being are ourselves every time we decide to create a negative environment or a positive environment through thoughts, emotions, and perceptions of ourselves and about what is happening to us in life.

The significance of this discovery regarding the expression of our genes and the response of our cells is profound. It suggests that just as negative thoughts and emotions can create a toxic internal environment leading to illness, we also have the power to enhance our health and well-being by consistently transforming those negative thoughts, emotions, and beliefs into positive ones. 

If our cells begin to receive stimuli with a high vibrational frequency, such as joy, love, tranquility, peace, and so on, they will begin to find ways to match this new environment, once again changing their behavior, recovering, and evolving positively with a direct effect through an increased level of well-being and physical health.
