“Look after your heart.
Don’t be another statistic as I nearly was.”
Did you know?
Our heart controls the quality of our life. How we look after it is how long it supports us. Modern day lifestyle choices can contribute to disease over decades, starting in childhood. In NZ heart disease kills every 90 minutes leaving countless others living a compromised lifestyle. Eat well, move more, stress less and love more and live a longer healthier life.

Success Stories
John’s Journey:
"I thought I was happily and effectively managing work and family life, not realising I was stressed all the time which affecting my health, progress and those around me. With Gay’s help
and her passion for heart knowledge, I decided to change quite a lot of things, and I am so glad I did.
I am healthier and life is easier."
Claire’s Transformation:
“An intense period of work and study caused a breakdown of my body and
immune system. I was told I was suffering from depression and needed medication. Working with Gay
I became convinced that my body could be repaired by mother nature and positive thinking. Gay’s
knowledge and support helped me develop a better way of life. I am 16 kg lighter and drug free.”
Tom’s inspiration:
“I was inspired by Gay and her passion for managing the heart has changed my life. I had previously done the Landmark Course but have now added to that knowledge. I went back
to work, have loads of energy, and I think, act and eat differently. We all need to be aware of our
health. It’s so important and mine has vastly improved. While our heart keeps us alive, it also affects our thoughts and actions, and so our whole life.”
