PTSD symptoms could lead to a significant burden on the united states economy, estimated $635 billion per year. This study revealed that; there was a significant increase in the HRV coherence scores over all between prior QMH implementation and after QMH entanglement, from 34 to 41, with t-test (0.0...

Creative-arts interventions have historically been used to treat people exposed to complex trauma. In the United States, however, such interventions have failed to achieve widespread use, perhaps because of obstacles to systematic study, which have prevented development of a sufficient evidence base...

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...

To test the effectiveness of a mental health therapy designed to reduce noncombat-related persistent posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms in 30 adult outpatients with a diagnosis of PTSD. The individual treatment offered modules to address PTSD nightmare distress, dissociation, general core...

Heart rate variability is a physiological measure associated with autonomic nervous system activity. Thisstudy hypothesized that lower pre-deployment HRV would be associated with higher post-deploymentpost-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. Three-hundred-forty-three Army National Guard sol-d...

Background The need for treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among combat veterans returning from Afghanistan and Iraq is a growing concern. PTSD has been associated with reduced cardiac coherence (an indicator of heart rate variability ) and deficits in early stage information processi...

We have produced a short video on the Trauma Recovery Project to give people an early preview of the initiative. It briefly glances at a few tragic events in the U.S. and abroad that have disrupted peoples lives as well as the faces of those who’ve helped inspire this effort.

PTSD May Be Greatest Injury of War Today From time immemorial, war has exacted a huge emotional toll on its participants. Although our understanding of the psychological impact of warfare has increased greatly over the past century and methods for treating combat-related psychological illnesses have...

The HeartMath Institute has designed a FREE 1-hour online mini-course that teaches evidence-based self-regulation techniques to help responders build resilience, protect against burnout, secondary traumatization and help themselves and others after critical incidents or natural disasters.

An initial study was undertaken on a HeartMath intervention, focusing on coherence, resilience and faith following a traumatic experience. Quantitively, there were significant post-intervention positive improvements in physiological coherence, and improvements in resilience and faith, and, qualitati...
