Meghan Markle introduced Prince Harry to ideas about ‘ancestral healing’, according to reports.
The Duke of Sussex raised eyebrows earlier this month as he opened up about “genetic pain” on a podcast.
Harry insisted he wanted “break the cycle” of ‘suffering’ endured by generations of his family through their royal upbringing.
What did Prince Harry say about “genetic pain”?
Harry told Dax Shepard: “I don’t think we should be pointing the finger or blaming anybody…
“… But certainly when it comes to parenting, if I’ve experienced some form of pain or suffering because of the pain or suffering that perhaps my father or my parents had suffered…
“I’m going to make sure I break that cycle so that I don’t pass it on, basically.”

He continued: “It’s a lot of genetic pain and suffering that gets passed on anyway…
“… So we as parents should be doing the most we can to try and say: ‘You know what, that happened to me. I’m going to make sure that doesn’t happen to you.'”

The news outlet also claimed Meghan turned to ‘tapping’ to help relieve anxiety and emotional stress.
The source added that Meghan is “convinced” the technique has aided her and her husband. They claimed the therapy helped “release negative patterns imprinted on their DNA from past generations – generations going all the way back to even the darkest of times including slavery, war, you name it”.
