Said Prince, "It's an amazing honor to be singled out as the best documentarian in such a long-standing, international festival that focuses on consciousness-raising films. I've enjoyed the recognition in the U.S., but the international stage is where I believe my message of a new way of healing will really take hold."
Prince was inspired to make the documentary through her need for healing from the prolonged sexual abuse in her past. She was motivated also by her desire to help others heal in a way that truly ended the typical cycle of repeated trauma most abuse survivors experience. Prince highlighted studies conducted by scientists at the esteemed Institute of HeartMath®, as well as the wisdom of tribal elders and great spiritual leaders of our time, proving that we are connected to the energy of the earth both in mind and body through electro-magnetic fields that directly overlap; we are all one pulsating life force connected by our biophysical energy and our emotions. By getting our minds and hearts in alignment, we become more balanced and we also have a measurable impact on those around us.
"Through researching the tenants of this film and exploring the head/heart and emotional connection, I discovered that we are all connected both physically and mentally to each other and, quite literally, to the earth around us," said Ronna Prince. Gregg Braden, a leading expert in the film, describes the evidence for this in a compelling, awe-inspiring example that literally changes audiences' perspective about how powerful we really are.
This enlightening documentary also provides a wealth of tools, techniques and information on how to heal, forgive and trust and, ultimately, become more empowered to contribute to the shift to heart-centered living and heart-based solutions that will create new innovation ways of solving global issues.
The film is available on DVD in the U.S. and as a streaming rental throughout the world at www.sacredjourneyoftheheart.com
