The Book by Susi Amendola
A deeper understanding of stress and heart health.
The Centered Heart: Evidence-Based, Mind-Body Practices to Stress Less and Improve Cardiac Health explores the connection between our minds, bodies, and hearts.
“This book and these programs are the culmination of what I have compiled through my suffering, my studies, and ultimately my own triumph in my journey back to health. It is what I have learned through the authenticity and openness that others have shared with me during their own sojourn to healing.
May this be an inspiration and a blessing.
May we all stress less and uncover the calm within us.”
-Susi Amendola, Internationally Certified Yoga Therapist, Author of “The Centered Heart”
