Healing the Heart, Strengthening the Mind. A Conversation of Survival, Science & Hope.
March 04, 2026
We invite you to a moving and enlightening online event.
One Woman’s Story of Healing
Her tests were “normal.” Her body did not feel normal.
She survived a life-threatening aortic dissection.
But survival was only the beginning. We explore the challenges of:
- The stress before the event
- The warning signs that something wasn’t right
- The search for medical help
- The crisis of diagnosis
- The fear of recurrence
- The unexplained palpitations, sleep interruption, brain fog & more
- The challenge of returning to a normal personal & professional life
What Was Happening?
Her psychologist explains:
- How overwhelming internal signals activate the brain’s crisis network
- How the autonomic system stores survival memories
- Why distressing symptoms can persist even when the heart is medically stable & medical tests are “normal”
And how targeted trauma treatment can help release these patterns safely.
A Message of Empowerment
This event offers:
- Hope, courage, inspiration & the importance of committing to a healthy mind & body
- Practical insight into how the brain & heart get stuck in the traumatic event
- A new understanding of recovery from traditional talk therapy to treatment that stabilizes the brainstem centres that perpetuate autonomic dysregulation
- Information to help heal the heart & strengthen the mind
Open to:
Women, families, caregivers & health professionals.
