An Introduction to HeartMath

New research shows the human heart is much more than an efficient pump that sustains life.
Our research suggests the heart also is an access point to a source of wisdom and intelligence
that we can call upon to live our lives with more balance, greater creativity and enhanced intuitive
capacities. All of these are important for increasing personal effectiveness, improving
health and relationships and achieving greater fulfillment.

In all of our media – poetry, music, theater, cinema – the heart is referred to with reverence. Yet scientifically it has still been described as just an organ in the human body that oxygenates our blood and pumps it into our arteries. More recent research has shown that the heart is much more important to our existence. In order to take full advantage of what the heart has to offer, we must bring the brain and the heart into balance and coherence with one another. Like any sort of synchronicity, the heart and brain working together is much more powerful than either one existing side-by-side without being in alignment. 

The mission of the HeartMath Institute, founded in 1991, is “to help people bring their physical, mental and emotional systems into balanced alignment with their heart’s intuitive guidance. This unfolds the path for becoming heart-empowered individuals who choose the way of love, which they demonstrate through compassionate care for the well-being of themselves, others and Planet Earth”. Here then is a short video introduction into the Heart/Math phenomenon:
