This book and the workbooks accompanying it were used as teaching tools in the state of Missouri.The self help book I.M. Heart is her first solo publication. It is a spiritual healing book - with emphasis on healing feelings based in fear and opening your heart to those based in love.

Alternative, LLC was established in 2009, with the parent sole proprietorship of Alternatives being in operation since 1995. The mission of both these entities has been: "CREATING POSSIBILITIES". This mission statement is based on the concept that each one of us has the potential to be happy, healthy and fulfilled in whatever roles we choose. We either limit or increase our opportunities by our beliefs, attitudes, feelings and thoughts. It is only when we are brave enough to notice, accept and heal ourselves from the inside out that we can achieve our real freedom, peace, joy and potential. We have conquered many frontiers. The one yet to be discovered is the power of the feelings of the heart. The two websites, www.heartselfhelp.com and www.imheart.net contain products, services and information to fulfill this mission.
The newest product is the I.M. Heart Pendent - "ONE". It is made of solid .925 sterling silver. It is a simple, elegant, classic design with the sides of the heart gracefully curved open at the bottom and connected at the top. The top represents where we are connected as "ONE", heart -to-heart. Both lines forming the curved sides of the heart pendent are significant in that one is your heart and the other is the heart of another person or of God. The heart pendent gently opens at the bottom to allow for both giving and receiving the flow of loving energy.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Sue McDaniel
In my experience of working with children and adults as well as my own personal growth journey, I have observed that our success is an inside job. We either move forward or stop our progress based upon beliefs, attitudes, thoughts and feelings. This is a complicated mix of internal perceptions through which we make choices, and take action. Research and literature digress at length about the impact of the mind. However, the role of feelings and the energy of the heart is often discounted. So, what if – all these centuries – we have lived thinking, planning and living our lives as if all our thoughts were the only truth? What if we have attempted to totally ignore the most significant energy in our body – our heart? What if we don’t even understand the role and influence of the heart on our lives? What if all this time – we have been living without connecting to the most meaningful and powerful energy source? What if who we really are comes not only from our mind, but also from our heart?
The heart has its own form of wisdom, different from that of the brain but every bit as important to our living, loving, working and healing. I.M. Heart encourages you to discover what feelings live in your heart and the energy those carry in your life. Learn how to open your heart to yourself first -- and then discover that you are also opening it to others and they are opening their hearts to you. This creates a whole new world!!
