Thalassemia is caused by impaired globin gene production, which can result in decreased or absent alpha or beta globin chains. This leads to various forms of thalassemia depending on which chain is affected and how severe the deficiency is. Alpha thalassemia traits typically do not require treatment, while more severe forms can cause anemia. Beta thalassemia major requires lifelong red blood cell transfusions and iron chelation therapy.

Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.
