EM Wave Personal Stress Reliever

Ok - I know what most people think of when they hear "Personal Stress Reliever" but in this case it's not a euphemism. It's the name of a product I highly recommend for people who are looking for a way to learn to manage stress better. It comes from the good people at Heartmath, an organization which promotes a form of biofeedback based on heart rhythms.

Specifically, research done by them, and others, has found a very strong link between the way the heart beats and our emotions. Of course, we all know how it feels when your adrenaline surges, like before giving a big speech (or in my case, playing into the wind with a 200 yard carry) - your heart races from the anxiety. Fewer people know that sometimes it can go the other way - physical sensations in our bodies, like a fluttering heart, can trigger anxiety. But the Heartmath research goes even further, finding a much more subtle connection between way our heart rate varies from beat to beat and feelings like appreciation, love, flow, as well as ones like fear, rage and depression. (If you want to know more, you can start with this summary, or check out my Amazon store for even more reading).

Even better, using this connection, researchers have found that working with the Heartmath EM Wave system can improve control of hypertension, asthma, and diabetes; relieve symptoms of insomnia, depression and fatigue; and help optimize performance for students, athletes and other who need to perform at their best.

I'm currently offering this to my patients with high blood pressure, anxiety, stress, depression, eating disorders, headaches, insomnia, etc. - and finding great results. If you are in the San Francisco bay area, you can come and see me at the Noe Valley Clinic for a consultation. Also, please feel free to send me an email with more questions, and consider the Personal Stress Reliever, which you can buy through my Amazon store or the Heartmath website.
