Lauren’s Healthy Heart Project

A big part of healing my heart involves a bunch of different exercises that I do on the regular. I’ve found the latest one to be a lot of fun and I can actually witness it helping me out, training my thoughts to focus on only one thing: my heart is healthy! My “assignment” was to find an image of a healthy heart, make a bunch of copies, and color the heart every night before bed.  This way, when I picture my ticker I picture a healthy beautiful heart with perfect valves

The idea is for my mind to take this image and send the message to my body, which will then follow along and create this healthy heart inside me.  It’s all about believing to the core that my heart is perfect (or will be soon).

I took it one step further and started to ask my friends to color along with me when they come to hang at my place.  Most of them get really into it (I think coloring reminds us all of being a child), and this way I have others picturing my heart as a healthy perfect ticker (also, turns out coloring is very calming).

Then, I had another idea! I figured I could post them up here and give all of you the image to color as well!  This way, every one of you can help heal my heart along with me. You can color the hearts and think healthy thoughts as you do so.  Your collective thoughts will be absorbed into all of these wonderful images and sent my way and I’ll get better and better!  It would mean so much to me.  If we all concentrate on this healthy image we can truly create a shift, a difference in my body.

Then, you can send your finished products to me!

I’m going to turn this into a project and may even make a collage of all the healthy Lauren hearts I receive so I can stare at them every day.

After you have colored the hearts, you can scan and email them to savelaurensheart [at] gmail [dot] com, or you can send to
