From Lurlene McDaniel, the bestselling author of young adult inspirational fiction, comes Heart to Heart. This emotionally charged novel explores loss, love, renewal, and the ways in which these complex bonds within families and between friends are tested at life's most challenging moments. Elowyn Eden and Kassey Messechek are best friends. They share every aspect of their lives. But one thing Elowyn has not yet shared with Kassey is that she checked the organ donor box on her newly acquired driver's license. Kassey only learns of this in a startling and devastating way—when Elowyn's life-giving donor wishes are about to be honored. Arabeth St. Clair has not had the luck to have a best friend. Due to her diseased heart, she's led a sheltered life. When Arabeth is sixteen, she and her mother receive the call that will change their lives—but they don't know to whom they should be forever grateful. When the worlds of these three girls and their families intersect, lives are changed in ways never imagined. Most especially, it is Kassey who sees things differently, for she can keep alive the memory of her dear friend by sharing the renewed life of another teenage girl, while helping to ease the pain of the two families involved and coming to terms with her own.

"Doc Childre's writing is eloquent, his wisdom is profound, and his easy way of communicating makes this book a treasure. His colleagues present the energy of the heart in the safety of a scientific context that invites us again and again to move beyond it." -- Gary Zukav, author The Seat of the Soul and The Dancing Wu Li Masters Heart Intelligence, Connecting with the Intuitive Guidance of the Heart provides readers with a new, high definition picture of the energetic heart as a unifying, creative, intuitive intelligence that we can learn to draw on for moment to moment guidance. Heart Intelligence links the physical heart to the spiritual (energetic) heart. Through its extensive communication with the brain and body, the heart is intimately involved in how we think, feel, and respond to the world. Expanding on their breakthrough book, The HeartMath Solution, the authors offer heart-based techniques and guidelines for living from the heart, which connects the puzzle pieces of our purpose and fulfillment. The book provides information and simple practices for accessing our heart's intuitive guidance to connect with our highest choices for better outcomes. Our choices are especially important through these changing times because they constantly create or disrupt our peace, happiness and self-security. Our thoughts and feelings influence the chemistry that regulates much of our health -- how we feel, for better or worse. Our thoughts, feelings, emotions and attitudes are just frequencies that we can learn to change -- once we put our heart into our intention. Heart Intelligence provides practices to replace fear with the attitude of intelligent concern (managed concern) which leaves us in charge and more attuned to intuitive direction. We learn the benefits of practicing simple coherence techniques a few times a day for boosting resilience and emotional balance; making appropriate choices; and clearing our mind from anxiety or overwhelm when needed. It is through deepening our heart intelligence, coherence and connection that humanity will be able to shift from separation to cooperation resulting in higher solutions to our personal and global problems
"What would you do if this were your family?"Like every other nurse, you have heard this question dozens of times. What did you say? For many, the natural inclination is to "fix" the problem by offering suggestions, but that approach is limited by our own experience and personal biases. Let's be honest, nursing has changed. Not only is PPE in short supply, we are missing something even more basic: spiritual connection, to each other and to our work. There is a more effective way to provide spiritual care. It begins with a question, an invitation to connect.In Heart to Heart, Dr. Biedenharn explores a 400-year-old, proven, and effective model of listening, which she field-tested with critical care nurses. Through her work, she found that deep listening can lead to deep connection in healthcare. This spiritual connection doesn't just improve patient outcomes, it also helps nurses reconnect with their call to service. And it all begins with a question.

The material in this book is more than just poems. Everyone has to find their only true voice, expression, and an outlet of showing how they truly feel without all the anger, pain, and negative emotions that seem to lead us in the wrong direction when we try to voice it through discussion or conversation at times. This is my only way of having a positive outcome without complications of having my true feelings come out the wrong way. It's not what you say but how you say it that means the most. Growing up in a mentally abusive family, I've learned that one single word said in different ways can have different meanings. If we say things the wrong way because we're hurting inside and hurt someone with our words, it only hurts us three times worse. God equips us all the same way and gives us all the same tools in life. The problem is he doesn't supply instructions on how to use them. They only become clear through trials and tribulations of life's lessons. If you want to break those vicious circles or want to lead a better, peaceful life without pain. Thank you, Lord, for all my hardships that have taught me so much about life and myself.
