Relaxamation – Every Day, I Expect Magic to Happen in My Life
A calming relaxation exploring a powerful shift in perspective: the conscious expectation of magic, which can support your mental health after a cardiac health event or diagnosis.
Heart Health Recovery: From Fear to Freedom
The hospital fixed your heart. Now, let’s heal your heart, mind and life.
If a heart attack, cardiac surgery, or a sudden heart diagnosis has left you feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or fearful about the future, you are in the right place. That “rollercoaster of emotions” isn’t just in your head. It’s a vital part of your recovery journey, and you don’t have to navigate it alone.
I help to bridge the gap between clinical discharge and long-term heart health wellness. I’m Sallie Crawley, a heart attack survivor, cardiac therapist and life coach. I understand the “what if” thoughts because I have walked this path myself. My mission is to guide you from health anxiety to a life filled with confidence, peace, and purpose.
Who I Help & Support
I provide a dedicated cardiac recovery roadmap for survivors and their families, specialising in the mental, emotional and practical side of:
-
- Heart Attack Recovery & Post-Cardiac Arrest Support
- Heart Surgery Recovery (Bypass, Stents, and Valve Repair)
- Life with Implantable Devices (ICD and Pacemaker support)
- Living with Chronic Heart Disease and a long-term diagnosis
Google can give you facts, but I give you a way forward
Through my books, community, membership club and podcast, I provide actionable strategies for the questions most heart patients are afraid to ask:
-
- How do I manage the fear of having another heart attack?
- Is it normal to feel depressed or anxious after my heart surgery?
- How do I adjust to life with an implantable device like an ICD or pacemaker?
- Why am I so tired all the time?
- When will I feel normal again?
- How can I rebuild my confidence when my body and life feel different?
- Is it safe to exercise or be intimate after a cardiac event?
- Why am I crying after my heart attack?
