Today, this is an all-points bulletin Amber alert out to you, because you have been hijacked by life and I’m here to help you out.

Today I am going to introduce you to something super powerful and effective in bringing heart coherence to any situation you find yourself in.

And not only is it super effective in my experience and that of many others, it couldn’t be easier!

Today’s episode, I am sharing a consciously curated free online event recording I have watched myself and can’t help but recommend to you. In addition to sharing this event we’re going to put the topic into context based on the scale of human consciousness and the Map of Spiritual Progress, so you understand the significance of it in regards to helping you shift and bring today’s significant subject of the power of the heart into your awareness.

You can see all posts related to HeartMath here.

A Little Background Info…

But before I get into today’s topic …

My name is Liz Gracia

I am your happy host of Your Weekly Dose Of Higher Consciousness podcast & and the Founder & Editor in chief of TheMindBodySpiritNetwork.com, which brings you this podcast.

I am also a teacher of consciousness and understanding where true power to be the change you want to see in this world exists.

I am on a mission to help you raise your level of consciousness on a wide variety of topics related to transforming or shifting yourself in the realms of mind-body-spirit, health, personal development, and spiritual growth.

Today is no exception!

Let’s get started.

So in my last episode, just before Thanksgiving, I shared a simple technique that I have used to transform my experience attending large business networking groups.

I also walked you through a simple guided meditation that you can do with your eyes open. I did it while driving in car on my way to networking groups.

This technique is called the HeartMath Quick Coherence Technique, which I am going to walk you thru one more time at the end of this podcast.

I don’t know if you tried it or not but if you did, I’d love to get your comments or feedback on it.

So today, I want to officially introduce you to the science and practice of heart coherence, the significant power of the heart, and how to access your heart’s intelligence to recover inner peace and create personal, social and global transformation.

This is not an understatement.

I have experienced the power of the heart’s intelligence myself with this simple to-do 1-2 minute quick coherence technique.

So last night I watched The Shift Network’s conversation with Rollin McCraty, PhD, is director of research for HeartMath Research Center at HeartMath Institute.

He is also the teacher of The Science Behind Your Heart’s Intelligence, which I introduce to you in the podcast, so be sure to listen in.

But before I do I want to share more about Rollin McCrady, consciousness calibrations in regards to the power of the heart vs the power of the mind and the intelligence of the heart as well as the consciousness calibrations of the HeartMath Institute in general and other relevant calibrations to put it all into greater context based on the scale of human consciousness and the Map of Spiritual Progress.

Here’s my Thanksgiving episode I mentioned above:

I am sharing my experience with Quick Heart Coherence exercise. It couldn’t be easier. It’s powerfully effective. And if you are in charge of a group of people, or are going to make a presentation, or simply want so sense of order and peace in your busy household, this is highly effective.

If you have young children…they will LOVE to join you in on this!

Power of the Heart vs Power of the Mind

So let’s put the power of the mind vs the power of heart into a proven context, which is the scale of human consciousness. The scale of human consciousness was developed by Dr. David R. Hawkins over a lifetime of dedicated work.

The power of the heart has also been measured at the Heart Math Institute and confirms the power of the heart vs the mind as calibrated in consciousness research.

The scale of human consciousness is a logarithmic scale of 1-1,000. Anything at 200 (or above) or 10 to the 200th power is positively oriented, constructive, and upward pulling.  It is considered higher consciousness. Anything below 200 is the opposite and consider lower consciousness.

All levels above 200 are meaningful. And just because something may calibrate higher on the scale of consciousness than another doesn’t make it better. It’s just a different energy field and “is what it is”. Many things in life don’t require the energy in some higher levels of consciousness.

A great example is courage. Courage calibrates at 200 on the scale and is the gateway to higher consciousness. You don’t need any more energy than 10 to the 200th power to step into courage.

In consciousness topics that require the ENERGY OF THE MIND like science and medicine calibrate in the range of 400-499. Now remember each point on the scale is logarithmic. 400 is 10 to the 400th power and 401 is 10 to the 401st power. The energy or calibration between the two is quantum in nature!

The ENERGY OF THE HEART calibrates in the 500s on the scale of consciousness. This is HUGE! It is a quantum leap in power and energy when you consider the power of the heart vs the power of the mind.

Though the MIND is powerful…it cannot hold a candle to the power of the heart and the heart’s intelligence!

Put the Power of the Heart to Work for You!

I have found that heart coherence is tremendous at getting my active brain in alignment with the inner peace, balance and power of the heart. I highly recommend the powerful and highly conscious resources coming from the Heart Math Institute (below). According to consciousness research in the book Truth vs Falsehood, the Heart Math Institute calibrates at 460 on the scale of human consciousness. This is significant. It’s the consciousness level of “Excellence”.

Let’s Put the Heart’s Intelligence Into Context!

A promised, I am sharing consciousness calibrations, based on consciousness research.  Calibrations are simply measurements of energy or impersonal attractor fields.

The following are calibrations of things, or topics relevant to today’s post on the intelligence of the heart. For a deeper dive into consciousness calibrations, you can watch my video about the higher levels of consciousness here, and the lower levels of consciousness here.

Check out the calibrations table below.

More About the Heart’s Intelligence

The intelligence of the heart is an interesting topic to explore within the context of consciousness research. While traditionally, the brain has been viewed as the primary seat of consciousness, research has increasingly shown that the heart plays an important role in this process.

One way in which the heart is thought to influence consciousness is through the phenomenon of heart coherence. Heart coherence refers to the state in which the rhythms of the heart become synchronized and coherent, leading to a more harmonious state of being. Research has shown that when individuals are in a state of heart coherence, they report feeling more calm, centered, and emotionally balanced. This state has also been linked to increased cognitive function, including improved decision-making and problem-solving skills.

Another way in which the heart is thought to influence consciousness is through its connection to the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system is responsible for regulating many of the body’s functions that we do not consciously control, such as heart rate and digestion. However, research has shown that the heart also has its own independent nervous system, known as the “intrinsic cardiac nervous system,” which communicates with the brain and other parts of the body.

Some researchers believe that this communication between the heart and the brain may play a crucial role in our overall sense of well-being and consciousness. For example, the heart has been shown to send signals to the brain that influence our emotional and cognitive states. This has led some to speculate that the heart may be a key player in our subjective experience of consciousness.

Overall, while much more research is needed to fully understand the role of the heart in consciousness, it is clear that the heart plays an important role in our overall well-being and cognitive function. Further research in this area may lead to new insights into the nature of consciousness and our understanding of the mind-body connection.

More About Rollin McCraty & the HeartMath Institute

The HeartMath Institute is a non-profit research and education organization that focuses on the intersection of heart function, stress, and performance. Their research has shown that the heart is not simply a pump, but rather a highly complex information processing center that communicates with the brain and other parts of the body in numerous ways. Here are some key findings from their research:

  • Heart coherence: The HeartMath Institute has developed a technique called Heart Coherence, which involves using breathing and visualization techniques to synchronize the rhythms of the heart. Research has shown that practicing heart coherence can lead to improvements in mood, emotional regulation, cognitive function, and physical health.
  • Heart-brain communication: The HeartMath Institute has also conducted research on the communication between the heart and the brain. Their findings suggest that the heart sends more information to the brain than the other way around, and that this communication plays an important role in our emotional and cognitive states. For example, they have found that the heart can influence the brain’s perception of stressful events, and that positive emotions such as gratitude and appreciation can lead to increased heart-brain coherence.
  • Energetic communication: In addition to the physical communication between the heart and the brain, the HeartMath Institute has also explored the concept of energetic communication. Their research suggests that the heart emits a measurable electromagnetic field that can interact with the fields of other people and objects. This has led to the development of techniques such as “heart-to-heart” communication, in which individuals intentionally focus on generating positive emotions and sending them to others.

Rollin McCraty is the Director of Research at the HeartMath Institute, and has conducted numerous studies on the relationship between heart function and consciousness. Here are a few examples of his research:

  • Heart rate variability: McCraty has studied heart rate variability (HRV), which is the variation in time between consecutive heartbeats. He has found that HRV is a measure of the flexibility and adaptability of the autonomic nervous system, and that low HRV is associated with negative health outcomes. Additionally, he has shown that practicing techniques such as heart coherence can lead to improvements in HRV.
  • Intuition and decision making: McCraty has also explored the role of the heart in intuition and decision making. His research suggests that the heart may play a key role in the “felt sense” that guides decision making, and that practicing heart coherence can improve intuition and decision-making skills.
  • Global coherence: Finally, McCraty has conducted research on the concept of global coherence, which refers to a state in which large groups of people synchronize their heart rhythms and create a coherent electromagnetic field. He has found that this state is associated with increased positive emotions, reduced stress, and improved physical health, and that it may have important implications for the collective consciousness of humanity.

In summary, research conducted by the HeartMath Institute and Rollin McCraty has shown that the heart plays an important role in consciousness, emotional regulation, and physical health. Their findings suggest that practicing techniques such as heart coherence and heart-to-heart communication can lead to improvements in well-being and cognitive function, and that the heart may have important implications for the collective consciousness of humanity.

NOTES ABOUT CONSCIOUSNESS CALIBRATIONs IN GENERAL:

All calibrations are based on Dr. David R. Hawkins decades of research into consciousness, and the Map of Consciousness that came from this research, so as to put into context where true, constructive power really exists and where it doesn’t.

The Map of Consciousness is a logarithmic scale of 0-1,000, where 100 on the Map of Consciousness is 10 to the 100th power, 200 is 10 to the 200th power, etc. The higher you go up on the Map of Consciousness, the more quantum in nature the power level comes.

Any calibration below 200 holds no truth and no power and is destructive in nature.

TRUE POWER begins at 200 on the Map of Consciousness (10 to the 200th power) and it is the level of COURAGE. In order to turn around anything that’s negatively oriented in your life, you need to step into courage on the matter in order to do so.
