I'm excited to share a piece I read tonight in The Heart's Code, by Paul
Pearsall. He's "...a psychoneuroimmunologist, a licensed psychologist who
studies the relationship between the brain, immune system, and our
experiences of the outside world." He has recorded the reports of heart
transplant and organ transplant patients and their families, and interviewed
families of organ donors, and is sharing his findings from "amazing stories
that seemed to indicate that some type of cellular memory exists and that
the heart played a major role in the recovery of those memories."

This is a piece that I found particularly interesting and touching:

"THE HEART THAT FOUND IT'S BODY'S KILLER
I recently spoke to an international group of psychologists, psychiatrists,
and social workers meeting in Houston., Texas. I spoke to them about my
ideas about the central tole of the heart in our psychological and spiritual
life, and following my presentation, a psychiatrist came to the microphone
during the question and answer session to ask me about the one of her
patients whose  experience seemed to substantiate my ideas about cellular
memories and a thinking heart. The case disturbed her so much that she
struggled to speak through her tears.

Sobbing to the point that the audience and I had difficulty understanding
her, she said, " I have a patient, an eight-year-old little girl who
received the heart of a murdered ten-year-old girl. Her mother brought her
to me when she started screaming at night about her dreams of the man who
had murdered her donor. She said her daughter knew who it was. After several
sessions, I just could not deny the reality of what this child was telling
me. Her mother and I finally decided to call the police and, using the
descriptions from the little girl, they found the murderer. He as easily
convicted with the evidence my patient provided. The time, the weapon, the
place, the clothes he wore, what the little girl he killed had said to
him...everything the little heart transplant recipient reported was
completely accurate."


I'm finding that reading this book is so easy. I'm typically a slow reader,
but notice that I'm reading as if sitting listening to the author. Feeling a
flow is happening.

with love and appreciation,
