What do we mean by “coherence”? “An optimal state in which the heart, mind and emotions are aligned and in sync. Physiologically, the immune, hormonal and nervous systems function in an energetic state of coordination. ” “…harmony in our body’s processes, mental and emotional ease and flow, and the efficiency and effectiveness in our words and actions. ” Institute © 2016 Heart. Math Institute

Heart Focused Breathing Technique Focus your attention in the area of the heart. Imagine your breath is flowing in and out of your heart or chest area, breathing a little slower and deeper than usual. Suggestion: Inhale 5 seconds, exhale 5 seconds (or whatever rhythm is comfortable. ) Institute © 2016 Heart. Math Institute
