New Research: HeartMath's Approach to Healing Stress & Trauma
From Dysregulation to Coherence: Exploring the HeartMath® Approach to Emotional and Physiological Regulation; Jorina Elbers, MD, MS1,2and Rollin McCraty, PhD1
Chronic stress doesn't just affect your mind—it dysregulates your entire nervous system, contributing to anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and disease. A new 2025 study in Global Advances in Integrative Medicine and Health shows how HeartMath's HRV coherence biofeedback helps reset your body's stress response.
Unlike wearables that just track your heart rate variability, HeartMath teaches you to actively shift into "coherence"—a measurable state where your heart rhythm becomes smooth and organized, calming your nervous system in real time.
Just 5 minutes daily for 4-6 weeks produced:
✅ Reduced stress, anxiety & depression
✅ Better sleep & less pain
✅ Improved focus & emotional regulation
✅ Increased brain volume in memory centers
The science is clear: you can train your body out of dysregulation and into resilience.
