I'm very excited to share my news!
I've just received my new qualification as a HeartMath Certified Practitioner for Stress, Anxiety & Self Regulation. Woohoo!!!
Breathe into your heart and feel the love!
I've been using the HeartMath tools and techniques for a few years myself and incorporated them into my life on a daily basis to regulate my emotions and stay on an even keel.
I've shown some of my clients how this works too using the bio-feedback technology to demonstrate in real time how the heart influences the whole system, mind, body & spirit, and how doing some simple techniques every day helps to bring balance and harmony to the whole system.
Science now recognises that the Heart is an Intelligent Energy system, with its own mini brain called the "heart brain". You will probably recognise the feeling of when your heart opens and you feel a wonderful loving connection with someone or something, a beautiful sunset, watching the waves gently lapping on the shore, or even stroking your loved pet, and the energy flows freely. Equally, when we get bad news, many people put their hands to their heart instantly, as the heart feels the emotional pain. The expression 'heart broken' is an extreme example of this.
Our hearts communicate with each other too. You may be familiar with the positive energy of joy, or the negative energy of stress when you are with certain people. Your heart certainly knows it.Over the last 20+ years, researchers have been exploring and revealing the amazing wisdom of the heart and how the heart and brain work together to regulate emotional and cognitive responses. Heartbeats are not just electromechanical pulses, they actually speak an intelligent language to which our entire being pays attention to and responds.
We now know that changes in the beat-to-beat rhythm pattern of the heart affects how we process information, how we feel and even our levels of creativity.
It's not the circumstances of life that create stress, it's how we think and how we respond emotionally to a situation that impacts the mind, body and spirit.
We can transform stress and develop self-regulation skills to become more resilient in the face of challenging situations and feel more love and connection in our lives.
The benefits of heart-focused practice include:
more resilience, the ability to bounce back after a setbackmore uplifting emotions like care and appreciationless stress and less overwhelmclarity of mind and the ability to think and communicate wellpositive and more optimistic outlook on lifetolerance of others beliefs and opinions, and so much more...Follow your heart... It knows more than you think!
