Dr. Maisha Hazzard -- Some Things Scientists Know About DNA May Change Your View of Life

Factors beyond the the DNA sequence may have more to do with things that come into expression--like cancer or cerebral palsy--than scientist ever suspected. The new field of Epigenetics is revealing more and more about the role of attitude, thoughts, feelings, environment, and life styles in the appearance of cellular "abnormalities" or cellular health. In other words,there are many changes that occur in the body under stress, for example, that appear even when there is no evidence that any changes have occurred in the DNA or that messages for changes have been sent from the genes. How does that happen? What role does consciousness play in healing or in illness? AND if everything is light and light is information, how does this relate to messages (information) in the genes? Maisha Hazzard holds advanced degrees in Communication (Ph.D.); Transpersonal Psychology (Ph.D.); Behavioral Science (M.A.); and Metaphysics (M.Msc.). Other graduate studies have included Information Science, Neuroscience, Comparative Religion, International Studies, Telecommunications, Education, Performing Arts, and Cultural Studies at various universities and institutes in the United States and West Africa.
