Studies have shown that traumatic memories can be passed down through generations.

A scientific experiment on rats showed that a traumatic event could affect the DNA in sperm and alter the brains and behavior of subsequent generations.

The experiences of a parent, even before conceiving, can influence the nervous system and the brains of subsequent generations, the report concluded.

In doing healing work, we must take a multigenerational approach.

If you’d like to learn more about this topic, I recommend “The Memory Code” book by Dr. Alexander Loyd. Another good resource is “Scared Sick” by Robin Karr-Morse and Meredith S. Wiley.
