The 15 minute heart cure: the natural way to release stress and heal your heart in just minutes a day

Stress activates a reflex in our body known as the fight or flight response which leads to a number of bodily changes. These bodily changes in response to stress are the invitation to participate in the heart-mind conversation, and when you learn to hear the conversation you can quickly call on the BREATHE (beginning, relaxation, envision, apply, treatment, heal, end) tool to stop stress in its tracks. The BREATHE technique combines two proven forms of relaxationguided imagery and breath work and puts a modern spin on ancient wisdom. Bothof these techniques elicit the relaxation response which is opposite the stress response. When practiced regularly, like toning your muscles in the gym, you'll develop a special neural network that will help you focus and find a sense of calm when faced with one of life's unexpected stressful challenges. The BREATHE technique can be used to help heal and protect your heart as well as help you focus and concentrate. It has been used successfully in health, business, academics, and athletics.
