Welcome to HeartMath Research

The Institute of HeartMath Research Center is a recognized global leader in emotional physiology, optimal function, resilience and stress-management research. The center conducts basic research into psychophysiology, neurocardiology and biophysics, and outcome studies in clinical, workplace, educational and military settings, frequently in collaboration with universities, research centers and health-care-system partners. This research has significantly advanced understanding of heart-brain interactions, heart-rate variability (HRV) and heart-rhythm coherence, and the physiology of optimal learning and performance.

Research interests also include the electrophysiology of intuition and exploring how we are all globally interconnected at a deep, fundamental level via electromagnetic fields and biofields.
