A blend of information and stories to help you uncover the unlived truths in your life and find what your heart can tell you about your soul’s purpose.
From our heartfelt attraction to another and our heartfelt acceptance of ourselves, our hearts contain a storehouse of information, data, and memories. Much of our lives’ essence and meaning is experienced on a “heart level.”
Heart Sense is a compelling combination of research and strange but true stories illustrating that most people need to get out of their heads and back into their hearts. Psychologist Paula Reeves tells how, time after time, successful heart transplant patients have undergone personality and style shifts as well as memory transfers, proving that the heart is not just a muscle. The real beauty of Heart Sense is that Reeves explains the heart’s intelligence and teaches us simple exercises (called “Heart Notes”) that help us tap into that intelligence and improve our lives. With this groundbreaking work, learn to listen to your seventh sense: the wisdom of the heart.
This deeply personal self-help book will help you:
· Find insight into yourself
· Draw strength from within
· Take delight in the life you live
· Improve your overall sense of happiness
