eartMath started in 1991 as the non-profit research and education organization, the Institute of HeartMath. HeartMath LLC was formed in 1996 to offer our research-based training programs and products to organizations, health professionals, and individuals around the world.

HeartMath training programs have been delivered with exceptional, documented outcomes in a wide variety of organizations, including Fortune 100 companies, healthcare systems, schools, government agencies, and to tens of thousands of people in pursuit of personal growth or better health.

Our Evidence-Based Programs include:

  • The latest findings on the physiology of stress, resilience and performance
  • A practical, proven tool set to respond coherently and effectively to complexity, pressure emotional challenge and change
  • HeartMath Inner Balance™ and emWave® technologies-engaging, real-time monitoring and feedback technology
  • Assessments-Normed and validated pre/post survey with aggregate report

At the Core of every HeartMath program and technology are 3 innovative principles with measurable outcomes:

  • Heart Rate Variability (HRV) — the naturally occurring beat to beat changes in the heart rate. It is well known that mental and emotional states directly affect the autonomic nervous system and HRV
  • Resilience — an individual’s ability to adapt to difficult experiences and rise above them
  • Coherence — a state where mental, emotional, physical and spiritual energy are in alignment and a person is operating at full capacity

Life is moving so fast. Today’s world has become increasingly complex, challenging and at times uncertain. As a result many of us can feel stressed and overwhelmed affecting our sleep, health, relationships, performance and the overall quality of our lives. Doing more than just keeping up, thriving and not just surviving, takes new skills and approaches. We understand. HeartMath offerings have been caringly created to help us manage the day-to-day challenges we all face.
