Leaders within healthcare organizations strive to promote healing modalities for patients, and a healthy milieu that will support the delivery of high-quality, evidencebased, safe, and compassionate care. Behavioral responses to increased demands, competing priorities, hierarchical turmoil, and incr...

Objective: This preliminary study tests the effectiveness of an elementary school-based stress management technique on anxiety symptoms and heart rate variability (HRV) in children. Methods: In this controlled prospective longitudinal study, children in third-grade classroom participated in a teache...

A stress management program using cardiac coherence was implemented after an organizational down-sizing. The study was conducted in nine voluntary workers in order to evaluate the efficiency of the pro-gram. A baseline evaluation was conducted on psychological variables (anxiety, perceived-stress, w...

Heart in the human body is a muscular organ that pumps blood to the different organs. However, there are some studies that advocate for some additional functionality of the human heart. Our long term goal is to visualize this extra ordinary role of the human heart through computer technology. In thi...

Twenty volunteers participated in a pilot study on the effect of coherence practice on the ordering of crystallization patterns in drops of dried saliva. The hypothesis tested in this study was that states of high heart coherence would result in increased order and complexity in crystallization patt...

The importance of the bi-directional communication between the heart and brain has been known for over 100 years (Lane et al. in NeuroImage 44:213–222, 2009a, Psychosom Med 2:117–134, 2009b) and plays an important role in many of the prominent theories of psychophysiology today. Uti...

Strategies are needed to improve adolescent substance abuse treatment outcomes. For example, during outpatient substance abuse treatment, up to 80% of adolescents continue to use. Following residential substance abuse treatment, 88% of adolescents relapse within 6 months. Psychosocial stress pl...

Research over the years has identified a number of stresses and anxiety periods for children during compulsory education (5–16 years). The current study focuses on infants (5–6 year olds) entering the education system. It explores children’s perceptions of ‘relaxati...

HeartMath refers to a psychophysiological approach dedicated to helping people establish heartbased living and global coherence through heart rate variability training, especially through heart rhythm coherence feedback. This study investigated the influence of emWave®2 heart rhythm coheren...
