The Heart-Brain Relationship

• The heart has its own complex

nervous system -- the "Heart-Brain"

• The heart sends far more information

to the brain than the brain sends to

the heart.

• The heart signals especially affect

the brain centers involved in

strategic thinking, reaction times,

and self-regulation.

​

The Central Role of the Heart

As the most powerful and consistent generator of rhythmic information patterns in the body, the heart is in continuous communication with the brain and body through multiple pathways:

• Neurologically

• Biochemically

• Biophysically

• Energetically

The magnetic component of the hearts field is approximately 5,000 times stronger than that produced by the brain. Electromagnetic fields generated by the heart penetrate every cell and may act as a synchronizing signal for the body in a manner analogous to information carried by radio waves.The heart is uniquely well positioned to act as the global coordinator in the bodys symphony of functions to bind and synchronize the system as a whole.

Heart Rate Variability

Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is a non-invasive measure of neurocardiac function that reflects heart-brain interactions and autonomic nervous system dynamics.

(Source: McCraty & Singer, 2002)

It is a measure of the naturally occurring beat-to-beat changes in heart rate.

Low HRV reflects the effects of depletion on the autonomic nervous system and is associated with:

•Weight Gain

•Metabolic Syndrome

•Hypertension

•Diabetes

•Congestive Heart Failure

Additionally, low HRV is associated with behavior problems and difficulties with emotion regulation, depression and generalized anxiety.
