๐Ÿงต Epigenetics

Anonymous No. 16086314

You read alot about epigenetic influence on the psyche but is the reverse also true?
Can you cause epigenetic changes via certain states of mind (for example vivid repeated imaginary scenarios)?
I'm not asking how to do it or if they know which gene gets activated how just a general question.

Thank you in advance.

Yes, but requires far more than you will ever be willing to risk.
>(for example vivid repeated imaginary scenarios)?
Because of this.

Subjecting yourself to true 'evolutionary pressures' requires an extreme level of intuition and and willingness to suffering BEYOND death, not before (imaginary....), because you cant trick your subconscious by pretending to believe something in front of (hypothetical) others (the environment), you say "Be afraid." but signal to your subconscious "Dont worry, its just a LARP."

>I'm not asking how to do it
You should, because your approach isnt logical or coherent to the variables.
>just a general question.
When your species is starving to death because you only eat one type of leaf...the mental anguish of starving and eating food not meant for you will fuck with your mind. An evolutoonary switch requires your entire (You) to be under stress.

Sure, psychologically torture someone for long periods and their epigenetics will change (turning on more stress response genes and the like).

Likewise you can alleviate psychological suffering due to a positive state of mind which would change your epigenome resulting in less stress related genes active.

I'm not sure I follow you.
If your mom patting your head when you cry as a baby causes epigenetic changes then surely it can't be that dramatic.

But just stress? What about test? A loudmouth getting his shit wrecked in and then producing less test to not fuck around anymore?

Youre clearly not a doctor of any kind amd everything anyone tells you will simply be lecturing some deluded and arrogant dunce.

IF SIMPLY READING WORDS WAS THE SAME AS COMPREHENSION YOU WOULD BE A DOCTOR TOO...

You're replying to a schizo. He has a name tag so you can ignore his shitty posts. Even miniscule events have epigenetic effects on humans.

>another "Not-Doctor" LARPing on 4Chan to feel included into the "this is the good side" of public's view

Very emotion based and lacking insight to posts made. Have you tried going to medical school instead of 4Chan?

Yes, simply relax and be happy in a meditative state.
There are /x/ related factors going on in the environment right now that is reassembling the "junk" DNAs in your body back to the original 12 strand helix from the current scattered state.
Only thing that will deny/block this process is fear based truma.

Part of that path to enlightenment is the crippling isolation and lack of interactions with others, asceticism...willful suffering.

The opposite of this.

The brain subjects the body to encroaching death, playing chicken with the subconscious until it blinks. The pain is real, the body cant say "mErElY pReTeDiNg." too.

"Greater in battle
than the man who would conquer
a thousand-thousand men,
is he who would conquer
just one โ€”
himself."

>Only thing that will deny/block this process is fear based truma.
I wonder if modern government education, police state culture and a broken social contract have anything to do with this...ergo youre already a beaten soul, the Gate is left open yet only prophets and angels seem to walk through.

I have about six weeks until I go war tourisming. I hope I get a badass scar on my face.

Meditative state merely means calmly observing.
What you are talking about are Budhhist techniques to forcefully speedrun the game; of course you will suffer in the process of doing that. Not to mention missing out on some of the fun events scripted ahead.

i studied epigenetics for a bit. my best guess is "probably".

however, it would take serious willpower. your state of mind would have to shift enough to modify your hormones.

Based, I loved speedrunning Super Mario 2 on the NES 20 years ago. A couple minutes shy of the world record but whatev.
>you will suffer in the process of doing that
Yes, and fear-based-trauma will ensue. I usually stop eating from anxiety for several days before each international flight I take...and Ive been on hundreds. Which hurts because I damaged my intestines from fasting several years ago and whenever I dont eat consistently for a few days I shit blood.

"King Arthur and his knights saw a vision of the Holy Grail. So, they set off in search of it. They came to a dark wood and decided it would be shamful to enter together. So each entered the wood alone at the point that seemed darkest to them."

>Not to mention missing out on some of the fun events scripted ahead.
Fighting for your life while experiencing existential crisis is far more interesting than "Brunch and mimosas."

Such as checking in on the war in Burma, pain, failure, horrific sights ahead...but love (the action) acts when fear is present or not. Its easy to love over brunch...but for some thats all they can handle.

there's a way to become a chad by touching cat poo, it's called toxoplasmosis. Toxoplasmosis is a parasite than can influence the host behaviour, reducing risk adversion and making you more attractive for the opposite sex.
