Book Description

April 13, 1998
A fascinating synthesis of ancient wisdom, modern medicine, scientific research, and personal experience that proves that the human heart, not the brain, holds the secrets that link body, mind, and spirit.

You know that the heart loves and feels, but did you know that the heart also thinks, remembers, communicates with other hearts, helps regulate immunity, and contains stored information that continually pulses through your body? In The Heart's Code, Dr. Paul Pearsall explains the theory and science behind energy cardiology, the newly emerging field that is uncovering one of the most significant medical, social, and spiritual discoveries of our time. The heart is not just a pump; it conducts the cellular symphony that is the very essence of our being.

Ten years ago, Pearsall, who was then running a clinical and research center at a major hospital, knew he had cancer long before his doctors confirmed his self-diagnosis. His heart was crying out that something was seriously wrong, but his doctors and colleagues dismissed his misgivings and said he was overstressed. Months later, Pearsall was diagnosed with Stage IV lymphoma with a small chance of survival. But he did survive, and his experience led him to enter research and make discoveries that are nothing short of revolutionary.

Pearsall, the author of the New York Times bestsellers Superimmunity and The Pleasure Prescription, explains how we live in a society that is run by our brains, not our hearts, and why this is damaging to us on a personal and sociological level. Pearsall shows that by listening to the subtle energy and wisdom each of us has within our hearts, we can learn valuable lessons for loving, working, playing, praying, and healing.

Full of amazing stories of transplant recipients who experienced profound changes in their lifestyles and cancer patients who recognized their illness before diagnosis, as well as data from scientists and sources on cellular memory and the power of subtle energy, Pearsall explores what these breakthroughs mean for the rest of us. By unlocking the heart's code we can discover new ways of understanding human healing and consciousness, even as we create a new model for living that leads to better health, happiness, and self-knowledge.


Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

The author of The Pleasure Principle uses the new field of cellular memory to show that the heart thinks and remembers.

From Booklist

Psychologist Pearsall had a personal experience with "energy cardiology" when he had hip cancer. His logical, directing brain struggled over his disease and what it meant to him with his sensitive, more accepting heart. He began to study the heart and learned about its "L energy" and how to recognize its warnings. He went on to study heart transplants and how the background of a new heart could affect its recipient; for example, one man began to yearn for spicy foods and to study Spanish before he knew that his donor had been Hispanic. Documenting the stories he tells with medical and psychological literature, Pearsall states that we have been too brain-focused and have not listened to all the heart has to offer. We should learn to be patient, connected with others, pleasant, humble, and gentle, Pearsall says, and for those who want to find out whether they are cardiosensitive, he presents a personal inventory. Although hardly a work of completely hard science, Pearsall's effort has much to offer thoughtful readers. William Beatty

3.0 out of 5 stars Read with an open "heart"!, June 14, 1998
This review is from: Heart's Code (Hardcover)
The subject of this book will resonate differently with a variety of readers. Some will reject the theories presented as preposterous. But, for those who have experienced this "heart" connection it will be the "aha!" or "yes!" that makes sense to their own experience. As unusual as it sounds to hear the language of the body used, as Pearsall does, to describe this heart to heart dialogue, the heart metaphor is a language that has been used to communicate love and human relations throughout the ages. Those who know the power of prayer and of letting go will have an easy time following Pearsall's logic. For those who have doubts, Pearsall adds the science of quantum physics and bell's theorem to validate his claims. His proposition is that the heart has a code and each cell is imprinted with memories. He goes further to say that the heart (not the brain) is the link between mind, body and spirit. He supports his L-energy theory (or fifth force) with research results, ancient wisdom, examples from his own practice and personal experience. This book will turn off some readers who take a scientific approach to medicine (and life), but to those who can get beyond the "white coat" approach to healing and human relations, this book offers a thought provoking alternative. I urge all to consider reading this book (and beginning to use its wisdom) with a "heart" open to the incredible possibilities that it suggests!

5.0 out of 5 stars Kudos to Paul Pearsall, Gary Schwartz and Linda Russek, September 4, 2000
By 
Linda Hartley (Arizona, United States) - See all my reviews
"The Living Energy Universe" by Gary Schwartz and Linda Russek and "The Hearts Code" by Paul Pearsall must be read together as it offers the most understanding from each.

In this "New Age" it is interesting to reflect back to ancient wisdom from the Children of the Night Rainbow, who were the people of the Polynesian Islands and the Hawaiians, who lived in Paradise 2000 years ago and lived the essence of Universal Living Memory. They believed that everything was alive, feeling, evolving, and immortal.

At the beginning of "The Living Energy Universe" Paul says a lovely Hawaiian prayer for Gary and Linda, the book and all of the readers. Thank you what a nice thought!

In "The Hearts Code" we find that as Paul is facing his own challenges he receives an understanding to share with all of us that the heart conducts a beautiful cellular "symphony" that is the true essence of our being... and how else can it be when our hearts are where God lives?

These two rare books were brought to my awareness by synchrodestiny as my journey with my son Jason has continued from Heaven. As I laid my head on my sons heart as his life support was ended... we exchanged the love and information and energy that these books speak of...hearts are always connected by love no matter which realm of existence they belong to forever.

I hope each reader feels the hopeful message in each of these books in their hearts, remember an open heart is best!

Pauls message is a lovely message of how interconnected we really are and when our hearts speak everyone listens and understands.

5.0 out of 5 stars Getting your head together, with your heart, May 5, 2003
By 
Dr. Laurence Martel (Hilton Head, SC, SC United States) - See all my reviews
Dr. Pearsall has hit a home run in a ballpark unfamiliar to most ordinary people who still think that the brain in your head is the mastermind of thought and behavior. What Pearsall has contributed, especially in terms of learning, creativity and memory is to reshape our foundations of perception that "love, dignity, relationships and integrity" might, after all, be the driving forces of human progress. Even if one considers "The Heart's Code" as a mere metaphor for our consciousness, without the empirical evidence of the role of the heart in human thought, Dr. Pearsall moves us closer to an integration of body, mind and spirit in a pracitical way, empowered by the heart.
