Stress coaching – Amsterdam – Haarlem
Heartmath Stress reduction program for resilience and personal effectiveness
The heart coherence stress coaching program
This heart coherence coaching program is developed by the Heartmath Institute, which has done years of research in heart-brain communication.
During seven stress coaching sessions of approcimately one hour we will explore where your energy leaks are and what gives you energy. We will keep track of your ‘ energy landscape ‘ throughout the coaching program. Hereby you create more awareness what is happening with your energy on a (working) day. Not only the amount of energy, but also the quality; how you feel.
Next to very interesting and evidence-based theory, you will be introduced to a variety of Heart coherence techniques. These exercises are simple and applicable on both quiet and busy days.
During the stress coaching sessions I make use of the Heartmath Emwave Pro heart rate sensor. With this highly sensitive sensor, we measure your heart rate, or rather the variations in your heart rate. You train yourself to make these variations rhythmical. A rhythmic heart rate is a coherent heart rate.
What does heart coherence do?
When you are ‘coherent’ your hormone-, nervous-, and immune system tune up to this harmonious rhythm of your heart. This feels like being ‘in the flow’. When you’re in the flow you will find that you have more energy, you feel more comfortable and happier and brighter, you can think more clearly-even during stressful situations!
The Heart Coherence exercises are great to do prior to a stressful situation. It will help you get through that situation better with more clarity. And, the Heart Coherence exercises are great to get you back to your peaceful self after a stressful event.
The image below shows how someone just sitting on a chair doing nothing has a chaotic heart rate and then starts doing a simple heart coherence exercise. This person is immediately in a state of coherence. Experience how you can bring yourself in ‘the flow’ and what this can mean to you!
The power of heart coherence
You can say to someone that they should think more happy thoughts, feel more positively or behave better, but very little chance this mere verbal advise will help at all- it is nothing more than an idea. So if you’re thinking ‘I will cope better with stress’ it mostly remains just a thought.
When you want to make a real change in how you (re)act, think and feel, you need to make a change at a deeper, more basis level; your physiology! A change in your Physiology impacts your emotions, your thoughts and thus your behaviour / how you deal with situations.
