Effectiveness of heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback is dependent on the relationship between the measured respiratory-heart rate coherence (CHR) and the resonant frequency (RFB) breathing. CHR is driven by the central autonomic network which consists of the interplay between the components of...

Welcome to the Global Coherence Initiative’s Full Moon synchronized Care Focus. In order for GCI members around the world to participate at a convenient time, we have chosen 4 a.m., 12:00 p.m. (noon), and 8 p.m. Pacific Time (GMT/UTC minus 7 hours) when GCI members can do the Care Focus together. Pl...

The purpose of this dissertation is to provide an evidence-based quantum medical research of the connection between heart and brain functions. Quantum Medical Hypnosis (QMH) has a significant impact on Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) individuals by increasing participants’ Heart Rate Variabili...

HeartMath Institute has dedicated over 25 years of scientific research into the study of the physiology of learning, resilience and performance. Most of us have been taught in school that the heart is constantly responding to "orders" sent by the brain in the form of neural signals. However, it is n...

Awakening the Power of We: The New Science of Interconnectivity Gregg Braden and Rollin McCraty, Ph.D. New and exciting discoveries are reshaping 150 years of scientific thinking about our relationship to one another and our planet. Today, for example, scientists say human beings are intimately conn...

This study used a biofeedback intervention that taught patients how to synchronize their heart rhythm with their respiration and their alpha brain waves in order to lower their levels of autonomic nervous system (ANS) activation. In essence, subjects learned how to create more integration between th...
