GET YOUR MIND: OFF your heartbeat! EVERYONE can "feel" their heartbeat if they CONCENTRATE on it!!!! (Lying on left side with ear on pillow is a good example) Try listening to some rock music! (Or Beethoven's 5th if thats your "thing" RELAX! Hope this helps Good luck BY THE WAY HEARTBEAT IS A GOOD THING! Dr Z
