Better Life Press is pleased to feature the final book by Lester R. Sauvage, MD.
Opening Hearts is the distillation of nearly a century of wisdom from an extraordinary doctor and man of faith. This book is part faith, part science, part health, and part autobiography describing an amazing life. It will inspire and challenge you to live in a more conscious, loving, and heart-centered way.
In this book, Dr. Sauvage asks us the same question he asked every patient before the their life-saving surgery: Why do you want to live longer? Then he delves deeper asking us to reflect on: What is the purpose of my life? How can I live a life of meaning? What is happiness and how do I find it? What do my actions reveal about who or what I love? Why does it matter?
He then guides us with his unique and very spiritual “heart wisdom” to find our answers.
He shares how the human body and the universe provide evidence for God. He reveals how spiritual awareness and life choices relate to healing, health, and happiness. And finally, he provides practical information to nurture the body, mind, and spirit. His goal: to help you create a life full of love and purpose.
During his career, this Renaissance-style philosopher-surgeon-scientist performed 10,000+ surgeries, many miraculous. His research lab abounded with life-saving medical devices and advances. Yet he’ll tell you his most important discovery was recognizing that love is the ultimate medicine that heals our body, mind, and spirit.
Barbara Mulvey Little, the book’s co-author and editor said, “Synchronistic grace brought this project to me at a time I when I needed spiritual healing. I felt God’s Spirit in Doctor Sauvage’s presence and by working with his ideas. Through this project, I found the healing my soul craved. It has been an enormous responsibility to capture the wisdom of a man who was truly a living saint so that the readers of this book might find whatever healing (spiritual, physical, emotional) they need too.”
