The 2022 novel, Open Your Heart by Ruth Cherry, Ph.D., delves into the psychological topics of fear, anxiety, control, dependence, emotional and spiritual balance, openness to possibility, love, self-love, and other issues. The information is framed in a fictional story of Anne and the various aspects of her inner world figures as they present their strengths and needs.
Hannah helps Anne recognize the habits that hold her back, preventing her from achieving the elusive fulfillment she seeks. Anne’s life isn’t bad. Her basic needs are met, and she’s not inherently unhappy—but she’s not happy either.
Much to Anne’s frustration, Hannah’s big advice is to “Open your heart.” Having expected a neat to-do list, Anne doesn’t know how to process the order, struggling even to understand what Hannah means. Still, recognizing that she isn't satisfied with her life as it is, Anne embarks on a journey of self-discovery under Hannah’s guidance.
“Open Your Heart will appeal to your heart, and your mind, and your soul. The story entertains, but the underlying message to trust your own inner wisdom will transform your experience from ordinary to magical,” Dr. Cherry said.
