The prospect of her looming open heart surgery for an aortic valve replacement paralyzed Donna as she feared for her life and for her young adopted daughter. As Donna made out her will, she realized there was no one to raise her child should she not make it. Spiritual awareness is heightened from challenges, but does it have to be a live- or- die situation? For Donna the answer was yes. In this speech, Donna talks about honoring the body-mind connection when faced with health challenges, with seven insightful steps to stay heart-healthy both literally and figuratively.

Over three decades ago, through a trusted and sage-like mentor, Donna was told she had been assigned three life lessons. She had survived the plane crash and she survived her melanoma surgery. Both of these life-altering events occurred on the date of a March 1st. Now she was scheduled for a heart operation on yet another March 1st. Was this to be her final life lesson, and would she live through it to be able to share her experiences? Donna had to conquer every self-defeating thought and pattern if she was to understand her lessons and live. During surgery a magnificent happening occurred as she drifted from her physical body and transcended time and space. Greeted by her mystical mentor, family and friends an unconditional love overwhelmed her as she was instilled with insights from the ascended masters, including instructions to share her experiences with others.
