Creating a buzz about health with Paula Carnell
DNA as a quantum field, what have drones got to do with it?
In this episode, I explore an emerging conversation at the intersection of quantum biology, epigenetics, bees, and perception.
Drawing on a recent Scientific Reports paper proposing DNA as a quantum-coherent system, alongside lived experience, bee wisdom, and metaphor, we explore the idea that DNA may function not only as a chemical code, but as a layered informational map, with different aspects becoming active depending on perspective and tuning.
This episode is not about proving a theory, but about opening a conversation between science, healing, and ancient knowing.
𧬠Key themes explored- DNA as more than a linear genetic code
- Quantum coherence, resonance, and information fields
- Why perspective matters more than location
- Epigenetics and environmental signalling
- Bees as teachers of field-based awareness
- Healing as tuning rather than fixing
The work of Bruce Lipton deeply influenced my own healing journey.
Bruce Liptonās research and teachings focus on epigenetics, the understanding that genes are not destiny, and that cellular expression responds to environmental signals. His work does not claim DNA operates as a quantum computer.
In this episode, I honour his contribution as a gateway: helping many of us move beyond genetic determinism and into a more responsive, relational understanding of biology.
š¦ Metaphor & multidimensional languageI also reference a metaphor shared by Alex Collier, using a flashlight beam to describe layered perception or ādensitiesā.
This is offered as a conceptual map, not scientific proof a way of visualising how multiple layers of information may coexist, with attention determining what becomes foreground.
š Why bees matter hereBees naturally operate through fields, vibration, and coherence:
- sensing electric and magnetic fields
- navigating by solar and environmental cues
- responding to rhythm before form
A bee flying around a body does not change the body ā it changes what information becomes primary.
Bees remind us that perspective selects reality.

182. Hive Mind & torpor
16:17||Ep. 182In today's episode Paula shares some details on the first session of the Spiritual Beekeeping course held in Skool and how the 'hive mind' principle has been used bringing together students with all ranges of spiritual and bee practice together with Paula's bees in her Bee Spa. Each session is connected to the time of year and what the bees are actually experiencing. In the winter bees go into a state called 'torpor' to preserve their resources and rest during the months when it's too cold and wet to fly, and also when there's nothing to forage on due to snow or lack of flowering plants.Learn more:Paula's community on skool has courses within the classrooms where you can learn more about honey, bees, beekeeping and health.Help his podcast reach a wider audience by sharing and writing a review.www.paulacarnell.comJoin Paula's FREE community on SKOOLhttps://books.by/paula-carnellMusic by RayaVisit subscribe to my newsletter for a free ebook version of āArtist to Beesā.Join membership: Spiritual Beekeeping on SKOOLFollow me n Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paula.carnell/Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paula-carnell-3016421/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@paulacarnell/videos
181. Balancing omega 3 & 6 oils
21:13||Ep. 181In this bonus episode, Paula interviews Jimmy who is an ambassador for Scandinavian Omega 3 and 6 balance oils. Hearing about the all important test that we all need to take to see what the magic ratio is for our internal oil balance, Paula was horrified to see that she was completely OUT of balance, showing dangerously high inflammation markers. This was despite leading a healthy lifestyle and eating organic food. Not taking any supplements, along with not including fish in her diet meant the oil balance was seriously out. Skeptical, Paula trialed the balance oil supplements, both in liquid and capsule form and was astonished to see a dramatic improvement in her oil ration after 4 months. Listen to her interviewing Jimmy whose life changed when he came across these supplements.To order your test kit and see what your oil balance is go to: https://www.zinzino.com/2020311180/gb/en-gb/explore/home-health-tests/Transparency, Paula is an affiliate with Zinzino and will receive a small compensation from each kit ordered.

180. New way of teaching Spiritual Beekeeping
11:12||Ep. 180As the Spiritual Beekeeping Course launches on January 29th, Paula explains how differently this course information will be shared. Using the wisdom of the bees, Paula will not be 'lecturing' merely hosting collaborative discussion based on a series of questions for each module. Together, participants will be using the 'hive mind' to solve beekeeping problems and sharing their own insights as together we tune into the spirit of the bee.The course begins with a live collaborative session. on January 29th within Paula's Premium Spiritual Beekeeping membership on Skool. For $15 a month, members can join the live sessions helping to build a new way of beekeeping, inspired by Paula's learnings with bees over the past 15 years. Recordings of each session will be available to members as the course progresses through 2026.
