Listen To Your Heart - A deep dive into HRV, The Heart-Brain Connection, Quantum Energetics and more with HeartMath Director Of Research Dr. Rollin McCraty

What’s the first thing we do to express empathy to someone else? We say “my heart goes out to you”. 

But what does that really mean? In this episode, I had the privilege of picking the brain of one of the world's top experts in the field of Coherence and the connection between the heart and the brain. His name is Dr. Rollin McCraty. He is the director of research at the HeartMath Institute, a professor at Florida Atlantic University. McCraty is a psychophysiologist whose interests include the physiology of emotion. One of his primary areas of focus is the mechanisms by which emotions influence cognitive processes, behavior, health, and the global interconnectivity between people and Earth’s energetic systems. He has been with HeartMath Institute since its founding in 1991 by Doc Childre. 

You’re going to want to listen closely to Dr. Rollin as he goes deep into the world of intricate connections and pathways between the heart and the rest of our body. We talk quite a bit about HRV (heart rate variability) and what that means as well. You’re going to learn how the heart has its own brain. How the heart connects to the brain and how breathing in certain ways can make you more coherent, resilient, and a better human being. 

This show was brought to you by me. If you would like to support me and the show you can find my website at sleepbiohacker.com and @sleepbiohacker on Instagram to learn more about me and my products and services.

Also a quick heads up...We talk about a unique device in this show called the Inner Balance and I’ll have links to that on my site if you’re interested in learning more.

That’s it for now. Sit back, relax, take a deep breath and off we go!
