Scientific Research
Science has become the contemporary language of the mystical. In fact, it is science that demystifies the mystical. When we started seeing measurable changes in people’s health, as well as in their lives, it became evident that something was happening within a person’s mind and body—and we felt it was important to measure those changes.
“Repeatedly, we have made scientific history by observing and measuring common people who are able to do the uncommon.”
In the last ten years, we have made great strides to demonstrate to people that true lasting change is possible. The evidence we have compiled from thousands of brain scans and HRV testing, as well as testing gene expression, immune regulation, cellular metabolism, and longevity measurements, is proof that common people can do the uncommon. And now, this evidence has become the loudest voice. Through our work, we have created a formula that shows how we can induce, predict, and replicate certain states, and that once learned, these states can be applied to greater and greater depths of human potential.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND A MIRACULOUS HEALING
Rollin McCraty, PhD and Carla Stanton, MD show a student’s heart rate variability (HRV) scan to demonstrate how sustained heart coherence conditioned a student’s body into the perfect state to heal. This amazing case history will demystify the healing process.

DEMYSTIFYING THE FORMULA – HEART/BRAIN COHERENCE
Danijela Debelic, MD and Rollin McCraty, PhD discuss the relationship between heart and brain coherence by showing the strong resonance between a participant’s quantitative electroencephalogram (QEEG) and electrocardiogram (EEG) readings.

One-Minute Deep Breathing Assessment and its Relationship to 24-Hour HRV Measurements
This study examined the correlations between a 10-minute resting state period, a 1-minute paced deep breathing protocol, response to handgrip and 24-hour HRV measures in 28 healthy individuals. Based on the results of the initial study, the primary study examined the correlations between the 1-minute paced deep breathing assessment and 24-hour measures in a general population of 805 individuals. Overall, the findings from the studies suggested that the 1-minute paced deep breathing assessment had high correlations with the 24-hour measures of vagally mediated HRV, and with VLF power.
