In the world of healing, the heart doesn't follow--it leads.
This simple truth is one of the most powerful lessons my father, Dr. Dick Versendaal, ever taught me.
"The heart is the queen bee. It leads the body. If you want true healing, start there."
In a hive it's the queen's job to make sure bee life continues. When the queen is strong and healthy, the entire hive functions in harmony.
But if the queen is weak, stressed, or sick, chaos ensues. The workers scramble. They will work overtime or even sacrifice their needs to support the queen. The hive loses its rhythm. And the whole colony begins to suffer.
Your body works the same way.
Science has shown that the heart is the most energetic organ in your body. It doesn't just pump blood. It sets the tone for everything else. When it's energetically out of balance, other organs and systems will do whatever they can to compensate. The brain may work overtime. Your digestive system may shut down. Your immune system might become suppressed.
Everything in the body is willing to sacrifice to keep the heart energetically balanced. That’s why the heart is often the last to show symptoms—but the first place true healing begins.
Why Symptoms Can Be Misleading
Let’s say you're struggling with fatigue or insomnia. The obvious answer might be to look at your adrenals or your brain. You do all the things to quiet your brain and to support your adrenals, but it's not helping.
Shift your focus. Think about your heart.
What if your heart is exhausted? Your adrenals and brain are primary supports for your heart. What if your brain is struggling because it’s working overtime to produce energy to back up an energetically tired heart?
Support the heart and the brain will say, "Thank you! Now, I can rest."
Support the heart and your adrenals might say, "Thanks, now I can restore."
I see this all the time in my work with Contact Reflex Analysis® (CRA®). When the heart is tired, everything else tries to compensate. It can look like thyroid issues, brain fog, anxiety, even chronic inflammation. But at the root is a queen bee that needs support.
What Happens When You Balance the Heart
When the heart is balanced:
The brain stops overworking
The nervous system settles
The immune system can defend
Digestion improves
Hormones begin to regulate
Your whole body exhales.
That’s why VerVita's philosophy starts with the heart. While our formulas support many systems, products like Heart Harmony (essential oil), ReGenerZyme Heart (supplement) and InspiraCell were designed to restore energy, flow, and vitality right at the core. From there, everything else can begin to realign.
For today, take a moment to connect with your heart. Breathe. Listen to her. Support her. She’s been working hard for you.
Just like a hive can't thrive without its queen, your body can't heal without its heart.
