No, that is completely false. While your brain does regulate your heart beat, as well as the majority of your bodily functions; it is your autonomic nervous system which takes over these tasks. While although you can consciously interfere with certain tasks such as breathing, just about anything beyond that is considered impossible by scientists.
I'm not sure what type of self inflated person submitted the answer below this, but it is neither possible nor theoretically possible to stop your own heartbeat via mental strength.

Yes, though no-one has ever taken it that far, for obvious reasons.
The mind has complete control over the body, your heart is powered by an electrical impulse generated in the brain, both in practice and in theory, it is possible to stop your heart.
