New research on heart-brain interactions explores the heart's role in system-wide coherence, identifying six modes of psychophysiological function and their effects on cognition.

This article presents theory and research on the scientific study of emotion that emphasizes the importance of coherence as an optimal psychophysiological state. A dynamic systems view of the interrelations between psychological, cognitive and emotional systems and neural communication networks in t...

Deciphering the relationships between emotional states and physiological processes is critical to broadening our understanding of consciousness. The purpose of this study was to explore the neurophysiological correlates of specific states of consciousness associated with the experience of sustained ...

Discover a groundbreaking approach to protecting your brain and memory as you age. We explore the fascinating science behind heart coherence, and how simple, heart-focused practices are showing incredible promise in slowing cognitive decline, including Alzheimer's and dementia.

The relationship between the heart and brain is like a complex dance that sets the tone for how we experience life. Learn more about how they interact with each other and how to bring them into coherence.

This article describes a study using heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback to treat emotional dysregulation in 13 individuals with severe chronic brain injury. Measures included HRV indices, tests of attention and problem solving, and informant reports of behavioral regulation. Results demonstrat...

Effectiveness of heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback is dependent on the relationship between the measured respiratory-heart rate coherence (CHR) and the resonant frequency (RFB) breathing. CHR is driven by the central autonomic network which consists of the interplay between the components of ...

In spring 2025, The Woodlands College Park High School in Woodlands, Texas became the birthplace of a potentially exciting movement in student well-being, thanks to the vision and leadership of student Sai Balaji. By founding the very first Heart Coherence Club, Sai set out to spark a culture of ins...

Did you know that the heart, often thought of merely as a pump, has a brain of its own? This remarkable idea, backed by neurocardiologists and numerous scientists, underscores a more profound communication between the heart and the brain than previously understood.

In a recent report by the Alzheimer's Association, it was revealed that over 6 million people in America are currently living with Alzheimer's Disease (AD). This devastating disease slowly erodes the minds of people we love and care for, but a ray of hope has emerged with a groundbreaking study that...
