The narrative contains imagery of clear and open arteries and a strong and steady heart, as well as a balanced, healthy biochemistry in the bloodstream that fosters the removal of fat and cholesterol, and the natural repair of artery walls. In addition to the hypnotic physiological suggestions, there is also powerful psychological imagery for reducing stress, impatience and resentment, and cultivating emotional resilience, peace and gratitude - traits associated with cardiovascular health. A separate track of affirmations offers briefer versions of these healthful images for those who prefer their mind-body tools in smaller doses, on the go, or even while driving.
