HeartMath Quick Coherence Technique
โค๏ธStep 1: Heart Focus
Close your eyes (if it feels comfortable) and gently shift your attention to the area of your heart.
Imagine your breath flowing in and out through your heart or chest area.
โค๏ธStep 2: Heart-Focused Breathing
Breathe in slowly and deeply, but naturally.
Aim for a rhythm of about 5 seconds in and 5 seconds out, creating a smooth, relaxed pattern.
Allow your breathing to feel steady and unforced.
โค๏ธStep 3: Heart-Felt Emotion
Recall a positive, renewing emotion, such as love, gratitude, appreciation, or care.
It can help to think of a person, place, or memory that brings you joy or peace.
Try to really feel the emotion in your heart, as though youโre reliving it in the moment.
HeartMath techniques are based on over 25 years of scientific research conducted at the HeartMath Institute on the psychophysiology of stress, emotions, and the interactions between the heart and brain.
The foundation of HeartMath lies in research on the heart's influence on mental, emotional, and physical health.
There are over 300 peer-reviewed or independent studies utilizing HeartMath techniques or technologies to achieve beneficial outcomes that have been published.
