Puran and Susanna Bair are Masters of our time. In sharing their wisdom, they take you on an exquisite journey into the vast expanse of the heart. I dare say that no one has previously come close to the level of discernment and differentiation presented here - in understanding what is exactly at stake and in inspiring the reader with what can be mastered and attained by adopting their incredibly empowering method of Heart Rhythm Meditation. The greatness of wisdom in this volume is life-changing.
Howard Glasser, Author, Transforming the Difficult Child and All Children Flourishing

Over the years, Living from the Heart by Puran Bair is the one book I have recommended more than any other. This second contribution from the Bairs extends and deepens the practical wisdom they have gleaned from years of teaching and exploration into the endless mystery of the heart. You will find science, poetry and inspiration, and much more, in these pages. I know this book will forever enhance the meaning and enjoyment of your life.
Dr. James L. Oschman, Author, Energy Medicine: The Scientific Basis

A powerful, authentic method for healing your emotional and spiritual heart and improving your physical health.
Dr. Katherine Burleson, MD, Cardiologist, Univ. of New Mexico

This clear but simple vision of the heart's immense power to foster healing brings fresh hope to all who suffer distress of body, mind, or spirit.
Dr. Catherine Warrick, professional educator and interfaith minister

This unique book reveals information about the heart that is innovative, inspiring and applicable. Though drawing upon ancient sources of wisdom, the Bairs provide insights valuable to modern people right in the midst of our everyday joys and challenges. Energize Your Heart not only convinces us that cultivating our mystical heart is possible amidst the obligations of family, friendships and livelihoods--it also lays out an elegant framework for fully developing the innate qualities that lie in the heart of each one of us. Practices such as these will build the heart-centered culture, founded on peace and respect, that we seek for ourselves, our children, grandchildren and for all life.
Dr. Bonnie Colby, University of Arizona

Every person who reads this book will benefit. This luminous book is an extremely practical, powerful guide to the path of heart. It's clear, lucid language evokes each feeling of the heart as its dimensions are described. The authors provide a step-by-step method for defining and expanding the breadth, height, depth, driving force, and inner dimension of the heart. From the initial description of the physical heart and heart center to realms of the spiritual heart, a picture of the whole heart comes together, lending an intuitive understanding of our relation to all of humanity.
Dr. Patricia Norris, pioneering psychoneuroimmunologist and professor, Holos University Graduate Seminary

I've used HRM to lower my blood pressure to the point of reducing the medication I take for it, stave off migraine headaches, and to quiet heart arrhythmia when I'm stressed or overtired. Emotionally, I was able to come through a very difficult marital breakdown and negotiate a win-win divorce without the intervention of attorneys. I've healed many childhood wounds, and restored optimism to my life. I feel a deep sense of peace, harmony and gratitude now that I've been able to find my life's work, and a deeper connection to my faith than I've ever had at any time of my life.
Ronnie Howell, BA

I feel that Heart Rhythm Meditation has saved my life, prevented a heart attack and stroke, as I am diabetic with high blood pressure and 57 years old. After each Heart Rhythm session I feel calmer and rejuvenated. It has always worked and I am very grateful for its impact in my life. I know that it has helped me with stress at work, and it has saved my relationships with my students and girlfriend many times beyond measure. It has provided me with a new lease on life, a more complete and fulfilled perspective on what life and living is all about, and a greater ability to be more productive and functional in my average daily life.
Jim Cumming, MS, MA, teacher, former Army captain

Soon after being introduced to HRM and applying the meditation practices, my blood pressure began coming down, I became more accepting of myself and I literally found my heart! HRM opened my heart letting 50 years of emotion flow making my life more alive and real! I have a much clearer picture of who I am, what makes me tick, and live more from an open and accepting heart.
Porter Underwood, Petroleum consultant

Over the years I have practiced HRM, there have been profound shifts in my life. As a classical musician, I have greater ease of playing, creativity in expression, and higher concentration levels than ever before. My relationships with colleagues, friends and family have never been better or had the richness and depth of intimacy that they now have. My health is great.
Robert Johnson, Assistant principal, Lyric Opera of Chicago

The forgiveness and gratitude practices of Heart Rhythm Practice have been gifts beyond price, allowing me to open to my life now with SO much gratefulness. It's like being able to breathe fully for the first time.
Jody Curley, MA

I had elevated blood pressure for several years and was on medication for this. Even with medication my blood pressure would still occasionally run a little high. I starting practicing HRM in 2001; subsequently, my blood pressure started lowering into the 90's/50's. I gradually decreased my medication and was completely off of it within 6 months. Three years later, my blood pressure typically runs low to normal and I no longer need any medication. I've had lupus for almost 26 years and during that time have had numerous experiences of life threatening illness and hospitalization. I had taken prednisone on and off, but since starting HRM, I have not been on prednisone at all.
Betsy Hart-McMannis, Physical therapist

From the beginning, whenever I attend an IAM workshop, no matter how badly I am feeling, running on empty, flying low, etc., etc., - it simply goes away and within hours I am feeling wonderful. Really. Sorry, no rational explanation here.
Kevin Walsh, RN
