She was the responsible, second daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle’s nineteen kids; always with a baby on her hip and happy to wear the modest ankle-length dresses with throat-high necklines.

Our unconscious thought patterns determine our relationships, our spiritual life, and our connection to God to a much greater extent than we know. That’s an alarming thought, because the subconscious mind is a mysterious realm that is really difficult to access and influence...right? No. It’s really not! And it’s the most urgent and impactful thing we can do. This book will show you how.

Publisher's summary
Go on an unforgettable journey, with a woman who has unimaginable strength.
Stephanie Nielson began sharing her life in 2005 on nieniedialogues.com, drawing readers in with her warmth and candor. She quickly attracted a loyal following that was captivated by the upbeat mother happily raising her young children, madly in love with her husband, Christian (Mr. Nielson to her readers), and filled with gratitude for her blessed life.
However, everything changed in an instant on a sunny day in August 2008, when Stephanie and Christian were in a horrific plane crash. Christian was burned over 40 percent of his body, and Stephanie was on the brink of death, with burns over 80 percent of her body. She would remain in a coma for four months.
In the aftermath of this harrowing tragedy, Stephanie maintained a stunning sense of humor, optimism, and resilience. She has since shared this strength of spirit with others through her blog, in magazine features, and on The Oprah Winfrey Show. Now, in this moving memoir, Stephanie tells the full, extraordinary story of her unlikely recovery and the incredible love behind it—from a riveting account of the crash to all that followed in its wake. With vivid detail, Stephanie recounts her emotional and physical journey, from her first painful days after awakening from the coma to the first time she saw her face in the mirror, the first kiss she shared with Christian after the accident, and the first time she talked to her children after their long separation. She also reflects back on life before the accident, to her happy childhood as one of nine siblings, her close-knit community and strong Mormon faith, and her fairy-tale love story, all of which became her foundation of strength as she rebuilt her life.
What emerges from the wreckage of a tragic accident is a unique perspective on joy, beauty, and overcoming adversity that is as gripping as it is inspirational. Heaven Is Here is a poignant reminder of how faith and family, love and community can bolster us, sustain us, and quite literally, in some cases, save us.

On June 10, 2008, Carol Decker walked through the hospital doors a healthy woman with flu-like symptoms and early labor contractions.

Story
In the summer of 1928, sixteen-year-old Minka was looking forward to a sewing class picnic. This would be a rare chance to put aside farm chores, don a pretty dress, and enjoy an outing with other girls. It would be a day to remember. And it was - but not in the way Minka had dreamed. Cornered by a stranger in the woods, the young girl was assaulted. Minka still believed that the stork brought babies; she would not discover for months that she was pregnant.

They're both plagued with faulty genes - he has bipolar disorder and she has a ravaging family history of breast cancer. But when their paths cross on the night of Lucy's 21st birthday, sparks fly, and there's no denying their chemistry. Cautious every step of the way, they are determined to make their relationship work-and they put it all in writing. Mickey promises to take his medication. Lucy promises not to blame him for what is beyond his control. He promises honesty.

Such a great story, such a great author
I love this book. The author's experiences and how she dealt with trials gives me so much hope for myself. She is so honest and open, putting her raw emotions on the page, laid out for everyone who reads her story. It's a refreshingly clean book filled with spiritually uplifting material, even during the thick of her horrendous challenges. I can clearly visualize a real person behind her words.

Truly Faith-Promoting and Inspiring in Every Way
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would recommend this to everyone I know. It had a profound influence on me. Her determination, grace, faith, perseverance, love of motherhood, etc inspired me to want to be better and feel like I could.
Any additional comments?
This book was an excellent listen. I loved Stephanie's calming voice and I felt like we were best friends when it was all done. The love of family in this story was deeply touching. Her own mom and dad and siblings and the sacrifices they made was astounding. They are just as inspiring as Stephanie. Christian, though, wow. What a truly incredible soul. His strength and commitment, his love and dedication to his family. His perspective remained unclouded throughout. What an amazing couple. What a beautiful love story. I feel blessed to have been able to have a glimpse into their very special and inspiring family. (I would love to hear Christian's side of things... his thoughts, struggles, etc.!)

So Much to Be Grateful For
Heaven is Here is such an inspirational story that is relevent to all types of families, faithes, and personal beliefs. Stephanie finds gratitude in the smallest things, and reminds us that we can too. Her descriptions are beautiful and her pain reminds us to be grateful for the most basic things everyday. This is a wonderful and inspiring read.

INSPIRING
Would you consider the audio edition of Heaven Is Here to be better than the print version?
I set up an account at Audible just to listen to this book. Hearing the story in Stephanie's peaceful voice was powerful.
What about Stephanie Nielson’s performance did you like?
Listening in Stephanie's sincere, soothing voice made me think of the gift it must have been to her children and family at the beginning of her recovery.
Any additional comments?
Thank you Stephanie for sharing hope with all of us.

70 books/year and this is the first time I cried
Couldn't stop listening. Enjoyed it even though I thought I already knew so much about the author's story. This book opened my eyes to what I have taken for granted and I made me strive to live with more gratitude. I'm hugging my kids and husband more after this one.

A marvelous story of hope and happiness reclaimed.
I loved hearing the author tell of her own struggle of survival and triumph! She is such a marvelous example of faith, courage and inner beauty that radiates from within BECAUSE of her faith in our Savior, Jesus Christ.
35 years ago I lost two of my precious children in a drowning accident. I, too, have had to trust in the Lord as I've found my way back to happiness. Happiness is a choice and life is good and full and rich even after devastating loss.
I cried many tears as I heard her tell her story. The Spirit has confirmed to my heart that, truly, our Heavenly Father know all of His children. He loves us and wants us to be happy. He awaits with open arms to assist and carry us.

Read it and share it!
What an amazing story! I met Stephanie the other day at Cafe Rio of all places! (If you've read the book, you know that's pretty cool!). I knew of her story and also knew my wife had read her book- I promised Stephanie when she told me it was available on Audible that I would get it and am so glad that I did. Stephanie, I may never know why you were called in this life to endure such an accident but your faith and courage has made me a better person, father, son and husband. Thank you. Thank you.
