Foreword

IN THE LAST twenty-five years since the start of my career as an intuitive healer, I have seen many changes in both natural health and allopathic medicine, but rarely do they come together in one place. This book truly is cutting edge as it brings a whole new perspective on that most important and unique part of our body: the heart. We know now it’s not just a mechanical pump, but also the seat of many of our emotions, thoughts, and even creativity. Throughout the centuries, the heart has been considered as a place of love yet seldom in medicine has it been treated with that love. This book will be an exciting journey whether you’re fully involved in western medicine, or in the new world of alternatives, and will bring new insights into the beauty of your heart and the power you have within.

Introduction

A PATIENT OF mine asked me to write this book. As Dawna navigated the uncertainty and the challenges of recent years, she realized that she had limited knowledge and resources in caring for herself. With my assistance and guidance, she was able to not only survive the challenges emotionally, physically, and spiritually- she THRIVED!

Each individual has the capability within himself or herself for practice self-healing, to preform self-care and to create his or her best life. The secret Dawna learned (as do all my patients) is that love connects you to your heart and opens the door to self-healing.

This book is for you if you are tired of seeking quick fixes and looking outside of yourself for the answers. Take charge of your life-your health and wellbeing and connect to the love within you. Within each person is a remarkable power; the power to heal, the power to live your best life. Power lies within the heart of every being and that power we all possess is love. It has always been present and always will be. When this power is recognized and trusted, it becomes the force that guides life to the highest self-fulfillment and healing. This power within grants permission to write and rewrite the script of life. You have the power to heal your heart and in doing so, create the life that you want

Part 1

You Have the

Power to Heal

Prologue

Rewrite the Script of Your Life

WITHIN YOU IS a remarkable power: the power to heal, the power to take charge, and the power to live your best life. It is the power of love.

This power is an innate part of our being and lies within the heart of every being. It has always been present and always will be. When this power is recognized and trusted, it becomes the force that guides life to the highest self-fulfillment and potential. The possibilities are endless to live one’s best life because this power within grants permission to write and rewrite the script of life. You have the power to take charge of your life, to create the life that you want and deserve to live. Two aspects of this power are often overlooked or dismissed: intuition and living from your heart.

Intuition guides daily life; it is the map that helps you navigate. Too often intuition lies dormant within because of either lack of understanding of how to use intuition (to own your power) and/or not trusting that intuition.

The answer always lies within, not outside, yet outside is where we look. One reason is societal expectations. We are conditioned to look to others—people, organizations, institutions—to serve as guides. Lack of information about how to develop and refine intuitive abilities, and the fear of making a wrong decision or choice, keeps us looking outside of ourselves for guidance.

Using your intuition allows you to be the author of your life story, to rewrite and change the script as necessary and as often as you wish. Make no mistake: you are the author and you co-create your life with your actions, beliefs, intentions, and perceptions.

Your script originates in childhood and early life experiences, family traditions and beliefs, and perceptions. Often beliefs are conditioned and engrained from childhood and, although changes have occurred throughout life, the script fails to change. Your script of your life is based on perceptions of not only how you view the world around you, but how you view yourself.
