Human Heart, Cosmic Heart: A Doctor's Quest to Understand, Treat, and Prevent Cardiovascular Disease

I absolutely loved Human Heart, Cosmic Heart. I read it in two days and truly could not put it down. I’ve been in the health and wellness space for a long time, and this book hit home for me on a deep level. After recovering from a nerve injury, I found myself diving much deeper into nervous system health, recovery, and the bigger picture of how the body actually heals. As a veteran, firefighter, coach, and someone who works closely with others trying to improve their health, I’m always searching for deeper understanding. My mom has arrhythmia, I have close friends with heart problems, and I’ve spent a lot of time asking the same kinds of questions the author explores in this book. What I appreciated most is that this book challenges the narrow, mechanical view of the heart. It opens your mind to the idea that the heart is far more than just a pump, and that true healing cannot come from only looking at one isolated part. There are so many factors at play, such as our nervous system, stress, environment, connection to nature, energy, and the way the whole body works together. This book really helped reinforce something I’ve felt for a long time: we need to treat the whole person. We need to reconnect with nature, think more broadly, and be willing to look at health from different perspectives. Human Heart, Cosmic Heart is thought-provoking, fascinating, and deeply inspiring. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to better understand the heart, the body, and the deeper forces that influence health and healing.

Tom is an outstanding thinker and his books exhibit a very rare synthesis of knowledge, wisdom, and breadth of experience. This heart book is outstanding but separately, and worth mentioning, his take on cancer is good as well and his take on virology is perhaps the most important work he has put out in my opinion. One of the few people whose thinking takes a subject to its logical conclusion and refuses to form an opinion until that point is actually reached. That is how one gets closest to the truth and this closeness is why Tom's work resonates with so many.

This is an amazing book that can improve your health and change your life. In his book, “Human Heart, Cosmic Heart”, Dr. Thomas Cowan speaks to you with such straight forward honest candor and compassion. This enlightening book will guide you on a true path of wisdom in how to keep our central organ, the heart, healthy and the body as well. Dr. Cowan shares this inspired teaching with a lifetime of knowledge in medicine and holistic health. As you will discover, Dr. Thomas Cowan is dedicated in seeking the truth, the true cause, underlying a medical illness in efforts to not only improve the quality of our lives, but to facilitate a permanent change. He brings to life the essential foundation for healing with refreshing insight to the incredible function and healing pathways of the body. He shares the how and why our body is meant to work synergistically and in balance with sunlight, and the energy forces of the earth, and proper nutrition. Dr. Cowan states in this book: “Life is, always, more than the sum of its parts”; and from early on in his medical training, he set out to learn everything he could about the dynamics of the human body and its relationship to our environment and how to encourage healing and maintain optimal health. As he guides you on this journey, you can let go of preconceived notions and open up to new higher levels of understanding…from the internal circulation and flow and workings of the body, to how connected our heart rhythms and our health is to our particular lifestyles. It inspires the love of life, and making choices that can have a major impact on your health and the health of your family and friends. You will find the teaching in this book an invaluable resource of knowledge and a means to finally have a way to take control over some of the most important health decisions of your life. It is such a privilege to read, and there are new revelations and insights that can have the most positive impact on your health and longevity.

It is a good product.

I have been enjoying this work. I am a satisfied customer

This newly released book is an exceptionally great read on "how the heart works and what to do about improving it." I think this is an especially good book for baby boomers! I have used the recommendations (diet and herbs) to help improve my blood test results (better Chol, stopped BP meds., over all blood work is much better). Dr. Cowan's logic and recommendations are a bit different than what the American Heart Association would recommend and for me that is the point. I am having dramatically more success following his thoughtful recommendations. My take is that Dr. Cowan, is an extremely smart and broadly educated MD so he can draw on information (scientific, personal, and experiential) from several areas in the broad topic of heart health. His logic and research track with other forward thinking pioneers in the heart health field, but his book is a very easy read! He can discern and explain what works, what doesn't work, and why from both a medical and a chemical/biological perspective. I gave him 5 starts because the book and information is that good, but he does briefly rant against the industrial age which I am quite happy to be a part of! If you do a search on his name you can also find papers and podcasts while the information is much more fully developed in his book.

I'm an RN. This little book will be used in a class I'm teaching about heart health in February. It would make a nice gift.

There are useful concepts ,observations, and ideas,but it is hard to get to them while submerged in words. It feels like something that should be part of a two or three book series instead of one book. There is a personal perspective of a self driven childhood and adolescence. A driven adult life, and a desire to include every useful though and feeling he can. Worth reading and considering, but a great deal of material for one book.

Im Rahmen der 5G Diskussionen ist dieses Buch empfohlen worden. Wie das nun mit dem Herzen zusammenhängt sei jetzt zusammengefasst: Das Herz-Kreislaufsystem ist nicht so, wie man das im Allgemeinen angenommen wird, ein komplizierter Mechanismus, wie das Blut in die Gefäße gelangt (Arterien) und von dort aus wieder zum Herzen gelangt (Venen), wird hier erklärt. Von zentraler Bedeutung ist hierbei die Beschaffenheit das Blutes und der Einfluss elektromagnetischer Wellen (5G und ähnliche) auf dieses. Ebenso wird einem klar, welche Bedeutung reines Wasser auf unseren Körper hat. Man wird aber nicht nur auf die Zusammenhänge hingewiesen, sondern man bekommt auch Tips, wie man seine eigenen Bedingungen selbst verbessern kann.

Muy bueno

Highly recommendable if you are interested in new ways to view the heart and what causes heart disease. Contains many eye openers and puts question marks with current treatment options without dismissing their value. Offers a bridge between treating and understanding the heart and heart disease in an allopathic way and treating the human who is suffering from heart disease, as well as treating the terrain they operate in. Never moralistic, or dismissing medical progress. I think a must read for those suffering from heart problems, those who endeavour to treat them and those who simply have an interest in the human heart.

This is far more than a medical book. It covers the geoetric shape of the heart as a Chestahedron as researched by Frank Chester. It also shows that the Heart is not the pump for the blood system. The capillaries are the pump using the Dr Gerald Pollack's research into the Fourth Phase of water and the positive and negative charge at the EZ zone. The heart is also the exit womb for us to return to the Fifth-dimension just like our entry womb as we come into matter. Well researched. Many thanks. With love and divine light. Robert Vicary

Be aware that this book is extremely short and concise, but very thoughtfully written. As usual with Dr. Cowan, you have to play along with his metaphors, thought experiments, and come in with an open mind. I would not go around telling people "it's scientifically proven the heart is not a pump!" but it certainly gives an interesting perspective and casts doubt on our understanding of anatomy and medical science. Really warm messaging to conclude and I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
