Heart Meditation Gives You a Resilient and Peaceful Heart The Heart Connects Body, Mind, and Soul Heart meditation is a powerful and transformational way to connect with your authentic self and end the struggle, pain, and blockages that may be limiting you. Developing a conscious relationship with your heart is the beginning of a life-long friendship. When you do this, your heart begins to speak to you and remind you of what is really important. A culture of the heart is emerging. Let your heart center open and relax. When you approach life from the heart, you feel more alive and in touch with your authentic self. If you meditate on your heart you tap into your heart's resources in a powerful way. Focusing on your heart helps you find your ground and also helps you reach for the stars. Finding your heartbeat brings attention to your heart. We've all been taught to rely on our minds and we have ignored our most powerful ally, our hearts. Too much dependence on our minds is exhausting and drains our energy and personal power. Related Articles:
Welcome - Institute for Applied Meditation on the Heart Interview with Conference Chairperson The following text is an excerpt of an interview conducted with Prof. Natan Bornstein, Co-Chairman of the International Conference on Heart and Brain. In it, he explains the significance of the connection between the heart and brain, and why the conference will provide both neurologists and cardiologists with groundbreaking insights into this developing field. Explain the connection between the heart and the brain? NB: From the stroke point of view, 25% of all ischemic strokes are connected to the heart, and the source of emboli and clots are formed in the heart, dislodged in the heart and then travel to the brain. Among the cases of atrial fibrillation, proper treatment can reduce the risk of stroke by two-thirds. New drugs in the field will minimize physicians’ and patients’ resistance to taking them, and we hope that this will be a breakthrough in the treatment of atrial fibrillation as a means to stroke prevention. Why is the International Conference on Heart and Brain unique?
Your Heart And Brain Are Connected | Creative Health Secrets The heart and brain are connected For years the heart and brain have been considered to be completely separate organs that do not influence one another. No-one thought that the heart and brain were connected. Our brains have developed over millions of years, rather like a house whose owner adds new rooms as the need for them arises. The limbic system was the next area of the brain to develop. The cortex or outer layer, the thinking area of the brain, and the pre-frontal cortex, the planning area, developed much later than the limbic system. When the emotional and cortical brains are working together we are in a state of well-being, which comes from a balance between what our emotions and our rational thoughts are saying. You may have noticed that when you feel love for another, or remember something that was pleasant or made you feel happy, you immediately feel calmer and more at ease. Variability in heart-rate is an important indicator of health. Photo Credit (Heart) Patrick J.
A Healthy Brain Needs a Healthy Heart When the National Institutes of Health convened a panel of independent experts this past April on how to prevent Alzheimer’s disease, the conclusions were pretty grim. The panel determined that “no evidence of even moderate scientific quality” links anything—from herbal or nutritional supplements to prescription medications to social, economic or environmental conditions—with the slightest decrease in the risk of developing Alzheimer’s. Furthermore, the committee argued, there is little credible evidence that you can do anything to delay the kinds of memory problems that are often associated with aging. The researchers’ conclusions made headlines around the world and struck a blow at the many purveyors of “brain boosters,” “memory enhancers” and “cognitive-training software” that advertise their wares on the Web and on television. But did the panel overstate its case? Dementia, of course, is a complex biological phenomenon. [break] Getting better data may be a problem, however.
