Learn what it takes to achieve “heart coherence,” where the heart, brain, and nervous system are aligned and in sync — giving you inner peace, a renewed sense of energy, clearheadedness, and a strong immune system.
Cultures around the world have long believed the heart was the epicenter of the body and responsible for our feelings, thoughts, and behavior. Interestingly enough, science today is starting to catch up and support this perspective, finding that our energetic heart — not our brain — acts as the gateway to our higher self.
Our heart is more than just an organ that circulates blood throughout our body — many in modern science believe the heart is more powerful, healing, and transformative than we ever realized.
The heart, with approximately 40,000 neurons, sends more neural signals to the brain than the brain sends to the heart. Our hearts are so reactive and dynamic that they respond to intuitive signals first — and the brain then follows suit.
Research by the HeartMath Institute shows that the patterns of our heart rhythms reflect in our emotional states. When we’re hit with a stressor, we get out of sync, which impairs mental functions and then we go into “fight, flight, or freeze” mode.
Our sympathetic nervous system mobilizes energy, while our parasympathetic system works to return the body to its “rest and digest” mode. When these two systems are out of sync, we experience erratic and chaotic heart rhythms, which leads to internal discord that can take a tremendous toll on our body and mind.
Rollin McCraty, PhD’s work as a psycho-physiologist and Director of Research at the HearthMath Institute illustrates that feeling positive emotions like love or gratitude can put our body back in harmony and stabilize the rhythms of the heart. In this ideal state of coherence, the heart’s electromagnetic energy transmits waves of healing, inner peace, and wellbeing that not only affects us, but others around us.
In this free, one-hour, science-based workshop, Rollin will show you what it takes to achieve “heart coherence.” You’ll discover how to reach a state of balance in which the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems stop playing an unhealthy game of tug-of-war with one another, and allow you to shift into a heart-coherent state to quickly help you focus, feel calm, and improve your state of mind.
You’ll look at the science of coherence and how the elements of all things — from atoms to galaxies — communicate at a profound, fundamental level. This interconnectedness, which happens via biological fields and invisible magnetic fields, influences our health and behaviors, and even correlates with major world events like earthquakes and war.
Rollin will show you how you can apply “coherence” (when the heart, brain, and nervous system operate in sync with each other) to be more conscious and intuitive about how you respond to external situations versus your same old stress-induced responses and behavior patterns. You’ll learn new ways to better manage anxiety, improve cognitive performance, and connect with a deeper intuitive awareness.
Rollin will introduce a practice called the Quick Coherence Technique, which can help you get in sync and achieve and maintain composure and balance. This simple practice helps you to intentionally develop greater heart coherence anytime, anywhere — so you can manage stressful and uncomfortable situations for extended periods of time, with less conscious effort.
In this 60-minute event, you’ll discover:
- What heart coherence is and the power of it
- How one of the most effective ways to be heart coherent is through emotional self-regulation
- The ways in which negative and positive emotions can impact your hormonal and nervous systems
- How heart coherence can positively transform each of us — and simultaneously improve social and global harmony
- A quick and simple practice you can use on the fly anytime you want to self-regulate and shift into a more heart-coherent state
Dr. Rollin McCraty has been with the HeartMath Institute since its inception in 1991, where he continues his groundbreaking work in heart coherence, intuition, consciousness, and global interconnectivity.
When you join Rollin for this scientific look into heart coherence, you’ll also learn about his 7-module online course — where he’ll go deep into helping you understand your heart’s intelligence, the scientific research of the interconnectivity of all living systems through our planet’s magnetic field, and several techniques that can transform us on personal, social, and global levels.

What People Are Saying About Rollin McCraty, PhD...
“Dr. McCraty and the HeartMath research opened me to a whole new understanding of intuition and heart intelligence.”
Dr. McCraty and the HeartMath research opened me to a whole new understanding of intuition and heart intelligence. I discovered by practicing the heart coherence techniques that it is possible to tap into the flow of intelligence and deeper wisdom anytime. I cannot imagine living any other way.

“These techniques, that are so practical and easy to learn, are also very powerful and transformative.”
HeartMath changed my life. I was always stressed out, worried, and anxious, and tried many ways to improve my wellbeing. Nothing really worked or had long-lasting results. These techniques, that are so practical and easy to learn, are also very powerful and transformative. And the best thing is that anyone can learn and benefit from them! I have seen amazing results in my teenage children, my family, friends, and colleagues. When people around you start noticing that you are calmer and more composed, less stressed, and these energetics remain, you know you are on the right path. I am so grateful for all the research and work that Dr. McCraty and the HeartMath team do to make these great teachings accessible to everyone. I truly hope this reaches as many people as possible, because living from our hearts is exactly what we need right now.
— Liliana Navarro
“My HeartMath personal practice is helping me be more present and engaged in daily living.”
My HeartMath personal practice is helping me be more present and engaged in daily living. The more I grow through this practice, the more I experience my personal superpowers and heart’s desires in everyday situations!
— J. Miles
“Dr. McCraty’s expertise, knowledge, and understanding in the field of human transformation and potential is impressive.”
Dr. McCraty’s expertise, knowledge, and understanding in the field of human transformation and potential is impressive. I am grateful for his lifelong dedication to researching and sharing the science behind the power of our hearts and how to align the mind, body, and emotions to optimize our potential. Through his research, Dr. McCraty not only offers new tools to help human beings live more coherent and harmonious lives, his work offers a new paradigm from which we can start understanding and viewing ourselves and our world as we are: fundamentally integrated, electromagnetic, and vibrational beings, versus merely chemical and mechanical beings. The HeartMath techniques were a huge blessing in my life as they helped me refocus, refresh, and renew my physiological and emotional strength. I gained the ability to disconnect emotionally from the stressors in my daily routine and have been able to return to a healthy place where I gain peace and resilience.
— Brigette Wagner
“I have learned to establish inner balance, regardless of my external environment.”
The HeartMath tools and techniques have literally become the baseline of my everyday life. The awareness that each of us has the capacity to essentially flip a switch and, on demand, align our internal states syncing our heart, brain, and nervous systems, has been truly life-changing. I have learned to establish inner balance, regardless of my external environment. It impacts my presence, how I listen, and how I communicate in my relationships, and ultimately it has inspired me to have more compassion for myself and others. A true gift in these times!
