Fear and Inherited Family Trauma
The Science of Epigenetics I have been going through some 'stuff' recently. This has caused some old wounds to resurface.

The Tree of Life
Offering Us Wisdom In my last blog post, https://wiseheartcoaching.com/epigenetics/, I wrote about epigenetics. Since then, I have been studying more on this important topic and feel it is often the key to much of the pain that causes us to suffer. My marketing manager, Anne Haynes, created a wonderful grap hic that helps explain epigenetics by utilizing the wisdom of the Tree of Life.
