HeartMath Breathing

HeartMath combines focused breathing with intentional positive emotions to create heart-brain coherence - a balanced physiological state that supports self-regulation and mental clarity. The method pairs gentle inhales and exhales at approximately 4 to 6 breaths per minute with positive emotional focus, smoothing heart rate variability patterns and signaling safety to the nervous system.The two key components are Heart-Focused Breathing, which involves slower, deeper breathing with attention placed on the heart area to promote calm, and Positive Emotion Shift, which activates feelings like gratitude, care, or appreciation to stabilize heart rhythm and support emotional balance.
