Why I use heart coherence in my approach
Of all the tools I use, heart coherence holds a special place.
Because it allows each individual to act directly on their regulatory capacity.
We often tend to view stress as an inevitable consequence of the situations we encounter.
However, what influences our experience is not solely what happens to us.
This is also how our system responds to it.
Cardiac coherence relies on regular breathing that promotes better synchronization between the heart, brain, and nervous system.
When this synchronization increases, the system generally has more resources available for:
• take a step back
• stay focused
• adapt
• making decisions
• recover after exertion
Unlike some relaxation techniques, the goal is not to decrease the activity of the system.
The goal is to enable it to function with greater consistency.
This distinction is important.
In many professional or personal situations, we do not need to be less active.
We need to be more open to what is happening.
I also appreciate heart coherence because it gradually develops autonomy.
The person learns to recognize certain internal states, to observe their reactions and to mobilize their own resources to regain more balance.
With regular practice, these adjustments can gradually become a new basis for operation.
It is precisely this capacity for self-regulation that makes it a valuable complement to my overall approach.
Heart coherence does not seek to eliminate life's challenges.
It helps the system to have more resources to get through them.
