  • Episode 8 - Heart Science. Exploring the Role of the Heart in Human Performance with John White from HeartMath Institute, USA.

    Shaun & Richard interview John White from HeartMath Institute. HeartMath self-regulation technology is based on over 29 years of scientific research on the psychophysiology of performance stress, resilience, and the interactions between the heart and brain in everyday life and for athletes.  

    HeartMath technology is currently being used as a secret weapon to 19 NBL teams throughout the US plus many many more sports teams and elite athletes globally. Why? Quite simply the methodology founded by HeartMath naturally increases human EPO levels, performance, and happiness amongst many other groundbreaking benefits. 

    Most of us have been taught in school that the heart is constantly responding to "orders" sent by the brain in the form of neural signals. However, it is not as commonly known that the heart actually sends more signals to the brain than the brain sends to the heart! Moreover, these heart signals have a significant effect on brain function—influencing emotional processing as well as higher cognitive faculties such as performance, stress, attention, perception, memory, and problem-solving. In other words, not only does the heart respond to the brain, but the brain continuously responds to the heart. 

    Be warned... this is a captivating interview that will allow you to understand how modern-day science can impact elite performance via the heart... Bring a notepad and pen!
