“Positive emotion-focused techniques, like those developed by HeartMath, can help individuals effectively replace stressful thoughts and emotional patterns with more positive perceptions and emotions.”

How stressed are you?

Do you:

  • feel very tired and exhausted most of the time
  • often feel nervous, anxious or depressed
  • have sleep problems
  • suffer from repeated headaches or minor aches and pains
  • worry about you job, financial commitments ore relationships

What can I do about it?

It is not the events or situations that do the harm but the way you respond to them. How you feel about them relates to how stressed you become.  Emotions or feelings have a powerful impact on the human body.  Positive feelings such as appreciation, care and love not only feel good but are good for you. They help your body systems to synchronize and work better like a well-tuned car.

“This software opens a window on how a person’s body handles stress…and returns the body to a state of calm.”

 

Research

HeartMath’s research has shown that when you intentionally shift to a positive emotion, heart rhythms immediately change.  The shift in heart rhythms benefit the entire body.  The results are immediate and long lasting.

How does it work?

Negative emotions like anger, frustration, anxiety and worry – lead to increased disorder in the heart rhythms and the nervous system.  However,  positive emotions such as joy , appreciation, care and kindness can create harmony in the hearts rhythm and the nervous system which scientists call coherence. Coherence leads to more mental clarity, creativity and better problem solving abilities.  It becomes easier to find solutions and better ways of handling stressful situations.

“… ‘intentional heart focus’ has been found by the HeartMath researchers to create greater coherence in the heart in as little as one minute.”

How can I create  coherence?

Barbara, as a  HeartMath Intervention Practitioner (HMIP) activates the simple HeartMath Stress Management System with her clients. You will be connected to the monitoring system via a small sensor connected to the ear or finger activating the Heart Rhythm Analysis to evaluate your present state. You can observe your progress in real time.

“Remarkably, simply by recalling a positive emotion the heart rhythms smooth out.”
