Appendices provide further details and research on psychophysiological functioning, reference previous research in this area, details onresearch linking coherence with optimal cognitive performance, heart brainsynchronization and the energetic signature of the various psychophysiological modes. Fromthis, the central role of the heart is explored in terms of biochemical, biophysical andenergetic interactions. With only three minutes of this technique, you reduce our level of stress hormones in the body in about 23 elevate DHEA, the precursor to all the hormones in the body, 100 and optimize the relationship between the heart and the brain. This generates increased synchronisation, harmony and efficiency in the interactions between brain, heart, and body. They can impact our ability to think, process, create, reason, and remember. This is visual evidence of the power of positive emotional states. Research ispresented identifying various psychophysiological states linked to these patterns, withneurocardiological coherence emerging as having significant impacts on well being.These include psychophysiological as well as improved cognitive performance. Heart-brain coherence opens the door to a direct link with the subconscious mind. Notice the more harmonious, sine-wave-like pattern that represents improved brain function and heart coherence. The concept of coherence is drawn on to understand optimalfunctioning which is naturally reflected in the heart’s rhythmic patterns.

These communication networks are examined froman information processing perspective and reveal a fundamental order in heart-braininteractions and a harmonious synchronization of physiological systems associated withpositive emotions. Adynamic systems view of the interrelations between psychological, cognitive andemotional systems and neural communication networks in the human organism providesa foundation for the view presented. This means that our heart coherence can fluctuate from moment to moment. Each one of us deals with stress differentlywhether the stress is mental, emotional or social. Physiologically, the immune, hormonal and nervous systems function. This article presents theory and research on the scientific study of emotion thatemphasizes the importance of coherence as an optimal psychophysiological state. This coherence has been linked to a sense of wellbeing, as well as being more emotionally stable and reaching peak states of mindfulness. Coherence is an optimal state in which the heart, mind and emotions are aligned and in-sync.
