About HeartMath Institute – 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 (heartmath.org)

HeartMath Interventions provide a set of techniques and tools that help our patients make positive emotional and attitudinal shifts that naturally induce a deeper positive state.  In creating and maintaining such a state, individuals can effectively initiate a re-patterning process whereby habitual emotional patterns underlying stress, illness and disease are replaced with new, healthier patterns that establish increased emotional stability, mental acuity, and physiological efficiency as a new familiar baseline.

The HeartMath program emphasizes the role of the heart as a key component of the emotional system. The heart’s extensive neural and hormonal communication links to the brain make important contributions to emotional experience. Contrary to what many may assume, the mind alone doesn’t have the power to shift emotional stress to change negative attitudes.  An important aspect of the HeartMath program is learning how to shift attention to the heart and activating an emotional shift.

Our Team Member Jorge R Lopez is certified in HeartMath Interventions and offers these services during clinic hours. Please call to set up an appointment.
