The Biology of Belief

Average rating3.8
With more than 100,000 copies sold of his self-published book, The Biology of Belief, Bruce Lipton teams up with Hay House to bring his message to an even wider audience. This book is a groundbreaking work in the field of new biology, and it will forever change how you think about thinking. 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. Using simple language, illustrations, humor, and everyday examples, he demonstrates how the new science of Epigenetics is revolutionizing our understanding of the link between mind and matter and the profound effects it has on our personal lives and the collective life of our species.

- rambling: feels like a stream of consciousness thing rather than a structured & well-thought-out argument
- the content of the book hardly feels related to its content. Only talks about beliefs in the last 30 minutes of the book
- little practical/applicable insight to be derived from the book
- his assertions like genes don't impact on outcomes, but only on perceptions is rubbish (its not either/or, but both). He doesn't even make the obvious connection that beliefs influence perception
I overall enjoyed the book a great deal! I think it's interesting how many scientists remain rigid in their beliefs but each to their own.
One little heads up, if you want to read this for how to change your beliefs, this isn't that book. This is just a scientific view of why belief can change so much of our lives.
Grab a book on energy psychology for actual practices. I have to admit I thought he'd go more into psych-k when I stayed this and was sadly disappointed. But it's still very interesting and a good companion for Dr. Joe Dispenza's work!
