Letter of Hope from Hospital Patient

July 4th, 2008 by admin

Hospital patient undergoing surgery recounts how Hero Soul provided strength, inspiration, and hope during recovery

“I used to look in the mirror and only have time to take a quick glance to ensure that I looked acceptable for a full day ahead of me. At 32, I am a mother of two and a wife of 8 years. I work full time and after putting in a days worth of work, I come home to my next full time job. Dinner, clean up, soccer practice, dance class, homework, baths, laundry I have a fully hands-on devoted husband that equally shares in the daily responsibilities but even then it is still so busy at times.

I recently ruptured my Achilles tendon. I needed to have surgery and knew that my recovery period would take several months. Anxious the morning before surgery I began reading, “Psychology of the Hero Soul.” It was given to me to read by a friend at work. I began reading the book and it had a calming affect on me. I knew I had to face my fears and deal with my reality. The night after surgery I had trouble sleeping so I continued to read “Psychology of the Hero Soul.” When I finished, it rejuvenated my outlook on life.

After reading this book I can now look in the mirror and see so much more of myself. I can surpass my physical “self” and look beyond to my mind, soul, and spirit. I have forgotten about my passions, ambitions, and the true person that I am. I have neglected what it is that I want to be remembered for in life and what I want to pass down to my children. I have learned that I need to enjoy the moment because life is passing by quickly. I also need to take the time to accomplish my goals in life and not say that I just don’t have time. I have to take actions to achieve my dreams.

I have learned that I need to maintain my soul and spirit by cleansing it from stresses, jealousies, and overall negative energy. Once the mind is cleansed it can be replenished with love, tranquility, passions, and dreams. With a positive outlook anything is possible.

I believe that “Psychology of the Hero Soul” is a well-written book that provided me with many examples of people whose extreme focus, determination and good virtues resulted in greatness. I was pleasantly surprised by the analysis of Perseus in the book. The Clash of the Titans has been one of my all time favorite movies as a child and Greek mythology has always fascinated me.

I have been so inspired to make myself a better person in every aspect of my life, as a mother, wife, co-worker, friend, daughter, and sister. During my recovery period this book has provided me with “food for thought,” tools to make my dreams a reality and enable me to keep a positive attitude during my healing process.” - Krupali Prevete

Death and Dying

June 11th, 2008 by admin

This article explains a few things about Grief, and if you’re interested, then this is worth reading, because you can never tell what you don’t know.

For over 15 years, I served the needs of the dying. They taught me a great deal about living. Every day we go and grow through a transformation process. We are constantly letting go of the old and taking in the new. We are never the same. We become closely related to our thoughts, desires, intentions, and experience.

Think about it for a moment. When you buy a new car, it eventually wears out. Along the way your car will change. You adjust to the changes and shift your lifestyle to live in accordance to the car’s ability and capability of use. The same is true with your body. It is your vehicle. It is what you use to get around the world in.

Because we often define our own destiny, it is vital that we become aware of our thoughts. Becoming aware of our awareness is the first step in being able to determine the direction of our lives. Now, we don’t know the future totally, but we can pre-determine a great deal of it through putting our thoughts into action.

It continues to amaze me how my parents and people I cared for in the dying process used to tell me they were ok. We adjust our lives and our destiny in relation to how we accept and embrace the path that is before us.

Truthfully, the only difference between you and Grief experts is time. If you’ll invest a little more time in reading, you’ll be that much nearer to expert status when it comes to Grief.

Something happens when we experience loss. Our emotions are heightened. We feel what is inside us. We begin to pay attention to our soul. This inward look at ourselves allows us to find our true identity. It is our soul. We come alive from the inside out. We are in a real way becoming more soul than body.

This article’s coverage of the information is as complete as it can be today. But you should always leave open the possibility that future research could uncover new facts.
