Could this explain why family members often go through the same trials and tribulations generation after generation? And if so, is there anything you can do to break the cycle?Bestselling new age author Dr. Stephen Farmer claims that each of us inherited karma. If you come from a long line of saints and humanitarians, your life is probably pretty sweet. However, if you are like most folks, your forbears are probably a mixed bag of the good, the bad, and the ugly. As a result, you are living with some appalling karmic cons.
