The Heart Speaks by Mimi Guarneri
Every day, 2,600 Americans die of cardiovascular disease--and despite remarkable interventional and surgical procedures, over 650,000 new heart attacks occur annually.In The Heart Speaks, Dr. Mimi Guarneri reveals groundbreaking new research that the heart is a multilayered, complex organ, possessing intelligence, memory, and decision-making abilities independent from the mind--and that healing the heart can have more to do with healing the mind and soul than we ever knew.
From childhood in a family riddled with heart disease to a medical career facing the pounding heartbeats of cardiac emergencies, Dr. Guarneri draws us into the intimate moments of life and death, and leads us on a riveting exploration of the heart's many mysteries. Through her compelling memoir we see that it is only by knowing the whole heart--its mental, emotional, spiritual, and universal aspects--that we can truly heal.
The American Heart Association has nominated her for the Bravewell Award in IM Leadership and has recognized her. She is a cardiology and internal medicine board certified physician. She is a resident of La Jolla, California.
