Howard Martin
Tuesday, February 23, 2016
Journey into the depths of your heart to increase your ability to embody unconditional love, boost your immune system, improve your performance, and tune in with the intuitive signals of the universe.
Have you experienced periods where you felt stressed and unfocused? Insecure and unlovable? Perhaps a bit lost and overwhelmed?
To anyone who’s going through such struggles — or wants to know how to cope during difficult times — Howard Martin has four words: Start with your heart.
Howard is one of the original leaders of HeartMath Institute, the world’s most influential scientific organization focused on activating the powers of the heart to optimize the quality of your emotional, physical and spiritual health and well-being.
He is also co-author of the award-winning book, The HeartMath Solution, the definitive work on engaging the power of the heart’s intelligence. Howard has traveled the world for 22 years, giving people the heart-based information and tools they need to transform stressful circumstances and experience greater well-being, cognitive functioning and performance.
I stay motivated to travel and speak because I want others living in these extraordinary times to experience a greater sense of fulfillment, self-security, health and success so that together we can create a more harmonious world.
Howard Martin
Through speaking, seminars, publications, training and products, Heartmath has touched the lives of millions of people in hundreds of countries.
We’re offering The HeartMath System program so Howard can introduce you to the dynamic partnership between heart, mind, body and spirit, and share important scientific discoveries which reveal that your heart operates as an information processing center and communication hub for your body and brain.
Howard will show you how achieving “heart coherence” — a scientifically validated state in which your heart and brain are energetically aligned and cooperating with one another — can increase your capacity to feel positive emotions like love, joy and gratitude and significantly improve every aspect of your life.
When your body, mind and spirit are attuned through heart coherence, you experience a mental and emotional clarity that energizes you on multiple levels.
You become more attentive, creative and laser-focused. You feel balanced and grounded and better equipped to deal with whatever situations and challenges life presents.
Thanks to discoveries made through decades of scientific research, the HeartMath System’s easy methods take you beyond stress-releasing modalities like meditation, exercise and yoga. Instead, you nip your emotional response to “fight or flight” situations in the bud, neutralizing stress before it can overtake your body and life.
Imagine acquiring the ability to take charge of your emotions and liberate yourself from anxiety and emotional overwhelm. Imagine the positive effects of this “freedom from fear“ mindset on every one of your relationships.
When you learn to live from your heart using this proven system, you reframe what you once perceived as tense interactions with others as opportunities to offer empathy and compassion to people in urgent need of both.
As unconditional love flows from your heart, you inspire and heal others.
How can you develop this capacity?
The HeartMath System is a step-by-step process that integrates leading-edge science and effective techniques that activate your heart’s intelligence for your own and others growth and healing.
When you get connected to the deepest part of yourself, you’re revitalized, empowered and even exuberant. You have access to more energy and more insight and live in an enhanced state of flow. You reestablish contact with who you truly are and awaken possibilities for a more purposeful and more meaningful life.
Your heart’s intelligence can even rekindle your sense of adventure and increase synchronicity, opening doors to new ways of sharing your unique gifts with the world.
Simply put, your heart is one of your most powerful tools for growth.
Broadcasting love to the world
When you learn to live from your heart using this proven system, you reframe what you once perceived as tense interactions with others as opportunities to offer empathy and compassion.
Your heart sends out signals, acting like a miniature radio broadcast tower that affects others.
You know how when you walk into a room with someone who is very loving and positive, the world seems to brighten and you feel happier?
That’s because they’re broadcasting positive frequencies from the powerful electromagnetic generator in the center of their chest. No wonder loving people are so magnetic and effective. We simply feel better around them.
These effects extend beyond just a few people. Collective moods and emotions have been shown to have a measurable impact on the earth’s geomagnetic field and the ionosphere, which in turn influences our health and social behavior.
As we become more coherent and joyful, it ripples out to the rest of the world.
So when we align our minds, hearts and souls with others who have also reconnected to their true selves, we can perform a larger service not only for ourselves but for people everywhere.
We add much-needed loving energy to the world and contribute to lasting cultural change.
The Power of a Masterful Teacher
The great news is that you don’t have to learn these techniques alone. You can be guided by a real master in a global community of support.
Howard Martin is a gifted speaker who has conducted keynote presentations and training programs for Fortune 100 companies, government agencies, all four branches of the U.S. military, school systems and ecumenical organizations.
Howard also played a key role in launching the Global Coherence Initiative (GCI), a science-based, co-creative project to unite people in heart-focused care and the intention to facilitate the shift in global consciousness from instability and discord to balance, cooperation and enduring peace.
In The HeartMath System, Howard has synthesized decades of scientific research, case studies and experiences of HeartMath students all around the globe to help you navigate through these changing, turbulent times and create a more peaceful and fulfilling life.
During this 7-week program, you’ll:
- Discover how your central organizing, heart-based intelligence can help you transcend life’s challenges.
- Be introduced to the four ways the heart sends commands to your brain and the rest of your body.
- Experience a foundational HeartMath technique that can quickly activate your heart’s intelligence.
- Understand why your heart is your most reliable guide to making decisions about every facet of life.
- Acquire the antidote to stress and the foundation of heightened awareness.
- Tap into your heart to re-energize your system and bring you more daily vitality.
- Understand how your heart activates higher perceptual centers in your brain so you have access to your higher-thinking capacity.
- Master a simple practice to override stressful or negative reactions — and gently bring you back home to your heart.
- Discover how science shows that your thoughts, feelings, prayers and intentions are more real than you ever believed.
- Develop skills for regulating your emotions and clearing old emotional patterns that no longer serve you.
- Learn the dynamics of how you are intimately connected to the hearts of others — and how your emotions influence the earth itself.
- Come away with a greater appreciation for viewing your life, others and the world through the lens of the heart.
With real scientific rigor, HeartMath has built a bridge from the philosophical, romantic and even mystical notions of heart we’ve inherited to a modern understanding of how the intelligence of your heart measurably affects your health, well-being, and our world.
You will learn practices that make a real difference in your baseline of health, happiness, and emotional well-being.
Ultimately, by taking this course, you will experience for yourself the truth of Howard’s words: “A change of heart changes everything.”
What You’ll Discover in These 7 Weeks
Each weekly LIVE training session will build powerfully upon the next, so that you’ll develop a complete understanding of the practices, tools and principles you’ll need to activate your heart’s intelligence.
Course sessions are on Tuesdays at 5:00pm Pacific.
Module 1: The Intelligent Heart
(February 23)
Within all people there is a central, organizing intelligence that can and does lift us beyond our problems even in the midst of chaos and confusion. It is called “heart,” and it has been talked about for thousands of years. In this first module, we will explore the history of “heart”, what heart intelligence is and develop an understanding of the ultimate partnership between heart, mind and body. You will learn about important scientific discoveries showing that the physical heart is an information processing center in the body and you will hear about the communication pathways by which the heart sends essential commands to the brain.
In Module 1, you’ll discover:
- A fundamental HeartMath technique that can quickly activate your heart’s intelligence.
- Easy methods to clear negative emotions and unhappy life experiences so you have more time and more energy for what matters most to you.
- A greater state of appreciation and gratitude, which helps to harmonize situations, deepen relationships and improve your productivity.
Module 2: The Power of Coherence
(March 1)
The heart’s intelligence provides intuitive guidance that allows us to navigate the complexities of life in a more elegant way. What often stands in the way of receiving this essential information is stress — a little word that covers many things we feel such as anxiousness, overload and sadness. What is stress? How does it affect us and how can we reduce it? We will explore answers to these questions, gain a scientific understanding of coherence — the antidote to stress and the foundation of new awareness — and learn a technique that can be used to give you access to the heart’s intelligence in the moment.
In Module 2, you’ll discover:
- HeartMath’s foundational technique of Quick Coherence® to increase heart coherence at the beginning of your day and whenever you become stressed.
- The science behind your heart’s intelligence and thus how to better access its full power.
- How your heart sends and receives essential information – and techniques you can use to improve your overall health and wellbeing.
- How to apply the science of the heart to find your own peace of mind – no matter what is going on around you or in your life circumstances.
Module 3: Energy Efficiency
(March 8)
Every day we wake up with a certain amount of physical, emotional, mental and spiritual energy. How we spend this vital, precious energy has everything to do with our overall quality of life, health, relationships and more. In this class you will use your heart’s intelligence to see what depletes your energy and what renews it. Learning how to be more energy efficient is an important key to creating the life you were meant to have.
In Module 3, you’ll discover:
- Three core heart-power tools for reenergizing your system and increasing your energy bank account.
- The Inner Ease technique.
- The relationship between your heart and your brain, and how to access the “more” of your brain most people never tap into!
Module 4: Understanding the Mystery
of Emotions
(
March 15)
The ability to feel a myriad of different emotions is a great gift. However, we often feel like the victim of our emotions. Learning how to better regulate our emotions represents the next frontier in human evolution and the heart’s intelligence offers a way to maximize the gift our emotions offer. We will explore emotion, how heart intelligence plays a guiding role in our emotional choices and also learn about refined emotional distinctions such as the difference between Care versus Overcare and Empathy versus true Compassion.
In Module 4, you’ll discover:
- The steps to shifting to a baseline of positive emotions such as compassion and appreciation that activate a coherent heart/brain interaction.
- How you can “turn on” positive emotions to turn around a discordant situation.
- Easy methods to clear negative emotions and unhappy life experiences so you have more time and energy for what matters most to you.
Module 5: Cut-Thru to Emotional Maturity
(
March 29)
Emotional memories are part of who we are. They shape our perception of life and provide context and meaning. However, at times these emotional associations can be limiting, coloring perception and awareness in ways that do not serve us anymore. In this class you will experience a powerful, heart-based technique for clearing old emotional patterns.
In Module 5, you’ll discover:
- The Cut-Thru technique, a six step process designed to free you from your often limiting emotional history, that can prevent you from having the life you were meant to have.
- How to open to a new connection with your authentic self and pave the way for new fulfilling possibilities to emerge.
Module 6: Sustaining Heart Coherence for Intuitive Connection
(April 5)
Intuition is always available as the heart speaks, sometimes softly and other times with clear direction. Intuition demystified can become a practical, common sense intelligence useful for making decisions big and small. In order to gain access to more of our natural intuitive intelligence we need to sustain a connection to our core power, the heart. Practicing techniques to increase the time you are in heart coherence is an effective way to increase intuitive access, improve health and well-being. In this class you will learn about intuition and practice two key HeartMath techniques — one for sustaining heart coherence and another for accessing intuitive guidance.
In Module 6, you’ll learn:
- A heart-centered method of intuitive discernment that will help you see your commitments through.
- Tools to cultivate intuition and knowledge that come from your heart’s awareness of people and situations.
- How to make more effective decisions that unfold your optimal potential involving your heart as your guide.
Module 7: Using the Power of the Heart to Create Social & Global Coherence
(
April 12)
The emergence of heart intelligence is an evolutionary imperative at this time in human history. Changes are happening quickly. The world’s problems are on full display but at the same time an expansion of “heart” is taking place. People around the world are shifting perception and beliefs and as a result a new and better world is taking shape. In this final class we will look at our current and future world through the lens of the heart. We will explore how we can contribute to creating a more heart-connected world and look at the personal, societal and global changes that are possible as more people use the heart’s wisdom to direct their lives.
In Module 7, you’ll discover:
- Fascinating research that measures the effects of human emotion on the planet.
- How you create a collective field with others that affects the health of your community.
- Ways to calm and center others, from your children to co-workers, through heart-based communication practices that have a global impact.
- The benefits of connecting with the Global Heart and how to extend your own heart-coherent field.

“Navigate Your Life with a State of Ease” Webinar & E-book
With Deborah Rozman and Jeffrey Goelitz
In this bonus webinar, Deborah and Jeffrey will talk about the challenges people face on a daily basis during these increasingly stressful and fast-moving times. There is a "state of ease" that each of us can access to help release emotional turbulence and help maintain coherent alignment between our heart, mind and emotions.
Learning to access this "inner-ease" can be done with minimum practice each day. When operating in an ease-mode, you’ll be able to more easily choose less stressful perceptions and attitudes and integrate more "flow" in your daily routine. You will also be able to create deeper connections and more caring interactions with those around you.
In this bonus session, you will learn:
- Why the "flow" is often hard to access and how to create it within yourself.
- Inner-Ease™ – a technique to reduce and prevent stress that you can use at any time.
- How to "prep" before engaging in potentially stressful situations, projects, communications and complex decisions.
- How the "state of ease" facilitates deeper discernment when making choices that decide the quality and direction of your life.
- Why the "ease-mode" helps you keep the mind and emotions in alignment with your heart in your day-to-day interactions.
- The relationship between coherence and resilience.
Jeff Goelitz is a senior trainer and program developer for the Institute of HeartMath. He has created HeartMath programs for teachers and families, including the TestEdge® Early HeartSmarts® and HeartSmarts learning programs for home and classroom. He is also the principal developer of HeartMath’s Wild Ride to the Heart® board Game.
HeartMath Brain Fitness Program & How Heart Coherence Enhances Cognitive Functioning
Audio Interview with Deborah Rozman and
Dr. Daniel Amen
The heart is more than a blood pump. Research shows that your heart can help power and direct your brain. The physical heart contains its own independent nervous system, or “heart-brain,” of approximately 40,000 neurons that can sense, feel, learn and remember. The heart-brain sends information to the big brain about how the body feels.
In this session, learn how the rhythmic patterns of your beating heart can improve your brain functions and help prevent cognitive decline. There are heart-based techniques that enhance the speed of information processes and the coordination of that information, sharpen your memory and enable you to be more creative and discerning.
Daniel G. Amen, M.D. , is a physician, double-board certified psychiatrist, teacher and eight-time New York Times bestselling author. He is widely regarded as one of the world’s foremost experts on applying brain imaging science to everyday clinical practice. Dr. Amen is the founder of Amen Clinics in Newport Beach and San Francisco, California; Bellevue, Washington; Reston, Virginia; Atlanta, Georgia and New York City.
What Graduates of HeartMath Courses at The Shift Network are Saying...
This course was a terrific help to me. I now have tools to help me gain more mastery of my inner life and responses to life. It will help me from adding stress and spiraling into negativity over challenges that arise. I have a physical disease, and this will help reduce the self created stress that I add onto the disease. I have even get better altogether. I am so grateful. Others will benefit too, by the inner work I do. Thanks to all of the instructors, especially Howard, as his words had a special way of getting right into me and helping me. He is so down to earth and insightful. But again, thanks for everyone!
– Sandy, Kingston, WA
Howard, Deborah and Sheva are masters! If you want to take an adventure into the intelligence of your heart and activate that intelligence in your everyday life, there are no better teachers on the planet! I loved this course. And I love HeartMath! But don’t think you have to study hard to "get" activated. That happens just by being in the heart space these teachers create.
– Bonnie Hartley, Westfield, NY
This has been invaluable and so beneficial in a time of great difficulty for me as a result of my daughter’s health issues. I can’t thank Sheva, Howard, and Deborah enough for their wonderful guidance and presence. Thank you, thank you. And thanks to all whose lives I touched and whose touched mine through the Facebook group. I highly recommend this course and this way of living life.
– Stephanie Martin, Hamlin, WV
This course has such practical benefit in regards to helping a person manage day-to-day stress, and also to help be able to get through more significant events with grace, insight and strength derived from operating in a calmer, more balanced frame of mind. It is presented in such a way as to show that this is a body, mind, emotions and spirit modality all rolled into one technique. I look forward to further deepening these techniques as I use them in daily life. Thank you HeartMath staff!
– Sally, Phoenix, AZ
Using the tools presented in this course made a huge shift in the total environment of teaching ESL with my Chinese students. They made whole-hearted shifts in their level of involvement, engagement and attitude because of the shifts I made in my expectations of them. It seemed like I was ’pulling the best’ out of them. We all experienced delight in all the activities I asked of them.
– Jameelah, JinZhou, Liaoning, PR China
I have POTS, which is postural orthostatic tachycardia and the one call I did listen to, after doing the HeartMath exercise, my heart rate was calm, compared to the usual pounding. It definitely has an effect on physical health and that’s priceless.
– Kolya Lynne Smith, Boston, MA, USA
My goal in taking the course was to bring more ease of living for Humanity in general. How I will find new ways of gifting this yet remains, but I am involved in peace and evolution groups where I will come back sharing this using my creative talents in storytelling and performance. Personally my goal was to spend time with people valuing ease, appreciation, getting along together to live and shape our living to be the change we want to see. This goal was a heartfelt match, helped through the HeartStart calls.
– Anahata Pomeroy, Ojai, CA
I have found the heart techniques extremely helpful. They tie in closely with my studies for my spiritual growth since being diagnosed with breast cancer In August, 2011. The message from Spirit was that I needed to nurture myself to clear the concepts that created the disease. I have clarified the need to care for myself; to be more accepting, loving, gentle, kind, and compassionate with myself. First, my state of consciousness, then my physical body, expanding out to loved ones, family and friends, and my community. Spirit has lead me to work with my breathing and meditation, HeartMath seemed to be an important next step and is proving to be invaluable from very beginning. The techniques are a practical application of connecting with Spirit and consciously opening and accepting (channeling) the Intelligent Energy of Spirit-Love in my Life. With gaining clarity, insight, and deeper understanding, I am able to share with others what they can do for themselves. How Spirit means for us to share the Light and Love and free ourselves to be in the Joy of Life and Living. This month is my second anniversary as a cancer survivor.
– Elaine Wilson, Madera, CA
I love having tools that can help me shift in the middle of a downward spiral of anxiety, frustration, anger, and negativity in the moment they are occurring and being able to come to a place of greater neutrality, calmness and clarity. I think that focus on accessing my heart space and the guidance, wisdom and love that resides there if I take the time to listen to it, is absolutely invaluable. It teaches me to listen more deeply to myself and to others. It becomes a tool for practicing greater compassion for myself and to choose my responses to events and people less automatically and more mindfully. It truly opens a door to live from the heart, cultivating the emotions of the heart and thereby creating a foundation for living with an open heart. I think it is a deeply spiritual practice and it’s backed by science which makes it more user-friendly to more people who are skeptical of "spiritual" teachings. I feel very grateful for having been introduced to it and have it become part of my personal, spiritual and professional path.
– Christina Giebisch, LCSW, Guilford, CT
I absolutely LOVED this course! I feel like this course is about something I’ve been searching for all my life. On a personal level my heart has been broken deeply numerous times over the years and I feel this course has helped me open it and feel more grounded and present in all aspects of my life. The tools are incredibly useful for emotional regulation and insight so as a therapist I’m sure I will want to share them with clients as well. On a global level HeartMath and it’s research is SO exciting and awesome!!!
– Karen, Oklahoma
This course is so amazing, I found my best friend, my Heart. I am filled with gratitude and love. Thank you HearthMath.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a virtual course?
I have never participated before in an online course. The packaging, presentation, inclusion and Facebook postings created a wonderful, safe cocoon to participate. I haven’t seen a course so well put together ever — not in all the years of taking college classes — and I had my doubts about doing an online course. The wealth of organization and ease of learning materials and support made this fun as well.
