by Mark Wolynn

Depression. Anxiety. Chronic pain. Phobias. Obsessive thoughts.

The evidence is compelling: the root of these difficulties may reside in the traumas of our parents, grandparents and even great-grandparents.

The latest research affirms that traumatic experience is passed on to future generations and that this emotional inheritance, hidden in everything from our gene expression to everyday language, plays a greater role in our health than ever previously understood.

“Groundbreaking”
