Product Details
|
The "intelligence" that the authors focus on refers to both the heart's "brain," or the 40,000 neurons found in the heart (the same number in the brain itself), and the intuitive signals the heart sends, including feelings of love, happiness, care, and appreciation. When such positive emotions are felt, they "not only change patterns of activity in the nervous system; they also reduce the production of the stress hormone cortisol." When there's less cortisol, there's more DHEA, the so-called fountain of youth hormone known to have anti-aging effects on many of the body's systems.
The HeartMath Solution outlines 10 steps for harnessing the power of the heart's intelligence, including ways to manage your emotions and keep energy levels high. One of the most important is the "Freeze-Frame" technique for calming the nervous system, improving clarity of thought and perception, and boosting productivity (which is one of the many appealing features for those Fortune 500 companies). Each step includes references to data proving its effectiveness, with handy summaries of the key points to remember at the end of each chapter. This is a book that takes a bit of scientific understanding and a lot of time to wade through, but one that could help you prevent stress from ruling your existence. --Erica Jorgensen --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

How to put your heart at the heart of everything you do!,
By Michael Neill (Woodland Hills, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Heartmath Solution (Paperback)
"Care is an oil that lubricates the entire mental, emotional, and physical system. If you run your system without care, it's like running your car without oil - resulting in friction and breakdown."If you've read many personal development books, you know that to find a truly original idea is rare. The best authors have the gift of saying something old in a new way that makes it more accessible; the worst simply have the temerity to say something old the way it's always been said and stick their names on the front cover. What sets Doc Childre and the Heartmath team aside is that they actually came up with something new, and then back it up with a set of simple techniques to put their findings into practice. Their discovery is that the physical heart has a lot more to do with our health and well-being than we ever thought possible, and that the simple act of "activating heart energy" by focusing attention on your physical heart and feeling sincere feelings of love, care, and appreciation reduces stress, strengthens our immune system, and gives us a reliable means to access our intuition. The Heartmath Solution is a great overview of their work, yet practical enough to begin benefitting from immediately. As an added bonus for those of you tired of the "fuzzy science" that many new-age tomes use to "prove" reincarnation, alien abduction, and the existence of Lemuria, the "math" part of heartmath actually stands up to some examination. Studies measuring ECG, HRV, IGA, DHEA and just about every other set of initials you can think of help satisfy the part of our brain that cries out for a rational explanation for something we all intuitively know - that love is good! Highly recommended.

This review is from: Heartmath Solution (Paperback)
The Heartmath Solution outlines the important role that our hearts play in our emotional lives, especially with regard to stress, anger, and anxiety. The Heartmath Solution is several exercises that use the heart, not the head, as the key to controlling emotional wellbeing, both for acute and chronic emotional situations.The science behind the theory is well documented and quite compelling, and the techniques are easy to learn and practice. Do yourself a big favor and BUY THIS BOOK, then buy several copies for friends and family, like I did.

The heart is more important than suspected.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Heartmath Solution (Audio Cassette)
The heart is at the very center of our being. It has more control over the body than previously thought. The heart puts out more current than any other system in the body. Our society relies to much on the head, and not enough on the heart. This book is an eye opener.
