Unlock the Power
of Your Heart.

Let’s help activate the heart of humanity


It starts with each one of us.

As you bring your physical, mental and emotional systems into coherent alignment, you begin to experience increased access to your heart’s intuitive guidance.

Tuning into your heart’s wisdom creates a profound shift within that helps you approach situations with more emotional balance, compassion, clarity and personal confidence.

Dare to connect with your heart. You will be lifting not only yourself and those you love and care about, but also the world in which you live.”
– Doc Childre, HeartMath Founder

The Inner Balance™ Trainer provides you with the simple techniques you need to manage stress, revitalize energy, and restore mental and emotional balance and resilience. The technology displays your heart rhythm, measured by Heart Rate Variability (HRV), which indicates how emotional states affect your nervous system and how you feel.

HRV offers a unique window into the quality of communication between the heart and brain, which directly impacts how you feel and perform – and especially your resilience.

Recommended by health professionals worldwide, the Inner Balance Trainer teaches you how to generate a highly efficient physiological state called HRV coherence, which lifts the vibration of your emotional composure and clears your reasoning capacity.

A few minutes of daily coherence practice has been proven to reduce and prevent many of the negative effects of stress, such as scattered thoughts, feeling overwhelmed, emotional distortion, fatigue, exhaustion, sleep disruption, anxiety and burnout.

From Stress to Coherence

Accumulated stress is often the underlying cause of common challenges, such as anxiety, anger, depression, lack of sleep, illness, and more.

Stress to coherence

Activating coherence helps you prevent and relieve stress and anxiety while balancing your mental and emotional energy — this connects you with your higher creative potentials.

Read about How Coherence Technology Activates Your Larger Intelligence – Practicing heart rhythm coherence for five minutes or more has a carryover effect of more flow and clarity in communications and activities.

Care Icon Throughout my last 10 years of intensive trauma and attachment-focused clinical interventions, the science of HeartMath has proven to be one of my most effective tools. The state of high coherence makes all forms of intervention easier to implement and helps produce a long-lasting effect.”
– Steve, (LCSW, CSAC)
Care Icon Since I started using HeartMath with overweight patients, I no longer give any dietary or nutritional information, and yet, my patients have the best results in weight loss I’ve seen in all my years of practice. Once they increased their heart coherence, eating in a way that’s beneficial came naturally.”
– David (MD, Psychiatrist)
Care Icon During a 4-week program, the patient had tapered off all narcotic medications and switched to non-opioid medications and as happens so often, his pain was often decreased. He stopped talking about pain, his sense of humor returned, and he barely used his cane. He got his life back.
– Nurse Practitioner
