Book Review – The Biology of Belief

You Control Much More Than You Think!
Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter, & Miracles

By Bruce H. Lipton, PhD

The revelations in Dr Bruce Lipton’s research is a major breakthrough that will change the way we think about what influences our personal success and fulfillment .  For years we have considered DNA and our genes as major determinants of our destiny – mentally, physically and emotionally.    With the revelations from his and many other biologists research, Dr. Lipton turns this major hypothesis on its ear.

Lipton 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.

This research aligns with the findings of quantum physics and indicates that the world forms around us according to how we perceive it.  For example, if we expect success and hold positive internal beliefs about our ability to achieve – we do.   When we expect less of ourselves or buy into the fact that because our father had heart decease – we significantly increase the likelihood that we will live up to those expectations. According the Dr Lipton – genes merely set up possibilities for us that may or may not be activated based on how we structure our internal (belief structure) and external (what surrounds us) environment.

This research has major implications for organizations and leaders because it makes a powerful case for challenging the assumptions that run our cultures and that orient our leaders.   The book calls on each of us to become more conscious of our belief systems so that we can mold them to be consistent with our desired outcomes.  Not because it is a good thing to do but because it has major implications on how successful and happy we will become.  This is one of those books that is a must for any leader interested in realizing their vision!
