emWave® Self-Regulation Education Technology

The emWave® Desktop is an easy-to-use software program with a heart rhythm monitor. The system is based on learning to change the heart rhythm pattern, which reflects our emotional state, and create mental and emotional balance.

The emWave allows students to see how emotions and attitudes affect their heart-rhythm patterns in real time and confirms when they are able to shift their emotions into a more productive, resilient state.

emWave is now being used in counseling centers at colleges and universities throughout the United States and Canada.

Students learn to effectively manage their stress levels and negative emotions, leading to improved cognitive performance, learning ability, relationships and creativity. emWave has also become an important and fun part of classroom behavioral management and high-stakes test preparation.

The emWave includes several games that students play. Before advancing in the games, students must first learn to self-regulate and balance their emotional state. Click for the full description, theoretical basis, or information of site licenses.

"Typically I introduce the emWave® Desktop as a primary intervention to assist students in developing the self-management skills needed to cope with stress. I find it very useful because it offers visual feedback. Students see the results of their actions. And it is so easy to use."
