Ep.92 | HeartMath for Building Resilience & Reducing Stress (Especially if You Don’t Like Meditating) w/ Michael Sipe, Life Coach & Business Consultant
Building up resiliency & reducing stress feels intangible sometimes. HOW do we relax our bodies? HOW do we support our nervous system? HOW do we give our bodies what they need?
These are the questions Shay & I have been asking for a while, which is why HeartMath has piqued our interest.
And to break it all down for us, we brought back a podcast guest of ours, Michael Sipe (whose previous episode is one of our most downloaded ones, ever - for good reason!) because he does an incredible job at explaining and exploring the intersection of science & spirituality.
And that’s kinda where HeartMath falls in.
HeartMath is a non-profit that’s scientifically researching the effects of heart & brain coherence. And from that research, they’ve been able to develop tools & training to help us elevate our emotional state, while ultimately reducing stress & improving our well-being.
It’s really cool to see the data backing up what a lot of ancient teachings & spiritual practices have known for a while.
We promise, this is a rabbit hole worth exploring & we’re excited to share this episode with you! 😊
In this episode, we explore:
➡️ What is HeartMath?
➡️ “Heart-centered” isn’t just a phrase, it’s science
➡️ The critical impact that the heart has on improving resiliency
➡️ Heart & brain coherence
➡️ How the HeartMath device works
➡️ Developing skills to move through stress in just 5 minutes a day
➡️ How easily subtle stress adds up
➡️ Demo of walking through a HeartMath practice - Timestamp: 1:04:40
➡️ Gamifying the process of coherence
