No matter your age, sex, or race, you and everyone else in America now have either heart disease or love someone who does. According to the World Health Organization heart disease is killing more people than all other disease, murders and war combined.

Someone in our country has a heart attack every 20 seconds. Someone dies of a heart attack every 30 seconds. If your heart has been feeling "shut down," "uneasy," or even just vaguely sensing "dis-ease" for an extended period of time, you too may be manifesting heart disease.

Whether you have heart disease, love someone that does, work in a stressful profession, or just want to live with a greater sense of well-being you're in the right place at the right time. The Living HeartWise program was created after my husband's triple bypass. We are here to help you not just survive - but to THRIVE! We have walked in your shoes and can help you find your way along the path to well-being.

Johnny is a big Texan guy. He served in the Air Force SAC Elite Guard securing Air Force One for three different presidents. He is a lifetime certified law enforcement officer. Having his chest cracked open, his heart cut out, and then being sewed back together was a terrifying experience for him. He was afraid that if he sneezed or coughed his "guts would fall out."

After he had been home for a while I talked him into coming outside to be with me one afternoon while I watered the plants. I got him all situated with a blanket and a glass of tea and turned the hose back on. After a while I turned around and he had big tears rolling down his cheeks. He said he was crying because everything was just so beautiful: me, the water, the flowers, the sky...everything.

After his operation, the blood began flowing back into and through his heart and he began feeling emotions again. He had shut down his emotions decades ago. All these feelings were overwhelming him. It seemed that he was crying all the time, so he talked to his doctor.

Johnny was told, "I'm sorry you're crying all the time. I can give you pills so you won't feel anything. Other than that, I can refer you to a psychiatrist."

Please understand, doctors are trained to treat the body. They are not comfortable discussing one's emotions or spirit. Those are invisible. Doctors don't deal with things they cannot see...like emotions. They can declare you dead when your spirit is gone, but they are not comfortable discussing your "spirits" on any given day.

However, emotions and spirit are part of the body. We are three part creatures: body, heart, and soul (subconscious or inner self). Yes - I said the s-word: "soul." There's a difference between spiritual and religious. The Living HeartWise program includes references to many spiritual teachings, but it is not a religious program. Living HeartWise was created to address your thoughts, emotions, and spirit. After all, if your spirit wasn't still in you, you wouldn't be here reading this now.

It is never too late to learn and implement better choices for better health. Of course you know about the changes you need to make in your diet and exercise, but you also need to know about changing what's going on inside your head.

Finding your path to Living HeartWise begins with the reassurance that since others have found their way so can you. It will take a little time, but not as much time as it took you to get where you are now. Your life and your health will get a little better every day. Your past does not doom you to die from heart disease. Every dawn brings a new day and a new opportunity to create the life you want by making different and better choices.

Your life is a mirror image of what you've been thinking. If you're here at this website, perhaps you are looking for ways to change your life. If you are ready to change your mind, begin now to pay attention to thoughts you think. Stay aware of any stinkin' thinkin'.
