“HeartMath’s research shows that emotions work much faster, and are more powerful, than thoughts. And that-when it comes to the human body-the heart is much more important than the brain to overall health and well-being-even cognitive function-than anyone but poets believed. Briefly re-experiencing a cherished memory creates synchronization in your heart rhythm in mere seconds. Through its research, the Institute of HeartMath proves that health starts with love.”
— Ode Magazine, June 2005 Issue
Dear friends,
The Institute of HeartMath (http://www.heartmath.org) has conducted extensive research showing that good health starts with love, and that love can reduce stress. Simple, quick exercises such as re-imagining a cherished memory can significantly improve your health when done on a regular basis. With a client list which now includes such leading companies as Hewlett Packard, Shell, Unilever, Cisco Systems, and Boeing, the HeartMath Institute has developed a powerful track record in helping managers and employees to decrease stress and increase joy in their lives and work.
In the space of less than 15 years, the HeartMath Institute has published a large body of scientific research in established and respected publications such as the Harvard Business Review and the American Journal of Cardiology. I highly recommend the HeartMath exercises and a visit to their inspiring website. The below, highly inspirational article on HeartMath was published in the excellent magazine, Ode. Every issue of Ode is filled with stories which deeply inspire and empower. As stated in the below article, may we all remember that we can change the world, starting with ourselves.
With heartfelt love and best wishes,
