As part of our ongo­ing mar­ket research we’d like to ask past and cur­rent users of Heart­Math prod­ucts to share their expe­ri­ence with us via this 3-ques­tion anony­mous sur­vey.   Please take this sur­vey if you have used a Heart­Math prod­uct your­self or have seen some­one else use it.

Please note that we do not endorse this prod­uct (or any oth­er) or any of the claims below. We inde­pen­dently track and ana­lyze emerg­ing brain/ cog­ni­tive sci­ence, tech­nol­ogy and inno­va­tion, and their real-world appli­ca­tions. This sur­vey helps us learn more about the lat­ter.

Com­pany name: Heart­Math LLC.

Com­pany descrip­tion (in their own words, in their own web­site): “Heart­Math LLC is ded­i­cat­ed to improv­ing health, per­for­mance and well-being at home and in the work­place.  We pro­vide prod­ucts and ser­vices that enable peo­ple to trans­form stress, bet­ter reg­u­late emo­tion­al respons­es and har­ness the pow­er of heart/brain com­mu­ni­ca­tion.  Through our train­ing pro­grams, coach­ing, pub­li­ca­tions, licens­ing pro­grams and inno­v­a­tive tech­nol­o­gy we pro­vide prac­ti­cal, sci­en­tif­i­cal­ly val­i­dat­ed meth­ods that enable peo­ple to live more reward­ing, healthy and pro­duc­tive lives per­son­al­ly and pro­fes­sion­al­ly. We have achieved glob­al recog­ni­tion for our ground­break­ing prod­ucts and ser­vices that have been proven to increase pro­duc­tiv­i­ty while reduc­ing the stress asso­ci­at­ed with liv­ing and work­ing in this era of high-speed change.”

Main prod­uct name/s: emWave Desk­top , emWave2 —  for  adults.

Prod­uct descrip­tion (in their own words, in their own web­site): “emWave Desk­top is a sci­en­tif­i­cal­ly val­i­dat­ed hardware/software sys­tem that teach­es tech­niques to help you cre­ate an opti­mal state in which the heart, mind and emo­tions are oper­at­ing in-sync and bal­anced. This is achieved through a patent­ed process which dis­plays heart rhythm pat­terns in real time show­ing you when you are in this high per­for­mance state. We call this coher­ence.  emWave Desk­top helps you achieve coher­ence and align­ment through sim­ple-to-learn exer­cis­es and feed­back. Using a pulse sen­sor plugged into your USB port, emWave Desk­top col­lects pulse data and trans­lates coher­ence infor­ma­tion into user-friend­ly graph­ics dis­played on your com­put­er screen. Through coher­ence tech­niques, inter­ac­tive exer­cis­es and game play, emWave Desk­top helps you bring your heart and mind into a coher­ent state, build­ing resilience, increas­ing ener­gy, and pro­mot­ing focus, men­tal clar­i­ty and emo­tion­al bal­ance.

emWave tech­nol­o­gy is an inno­v­a­tive approach to improv­ing well­ness and facil­i­tat­ing per­son­al growth based on learn­ing to change your heart rhythm pat­tern to cre­ate coher­ence; a sci­en­tif­i­cal­ly mea­sur­able state char­ac­ter­ized by increased order and har­mo­ny in our psy­cho­log­i­cal and phys­i­o­log­i­cal process­es. emWave tech­nol­o­gy col­lects pulse data through a pulse sen­sor and trans­lates the infor­ma­tion from your heart rhythms into graph­ics on your com­put­er or into easy to fol­low lights on the portable emWave Per­son­al Stress Reliev­er. Used just a few min­utes a day, this sim­ple-to-use tech­nol­o­gy helps you trans­form feel­ings of anger, anx­i­ety or frus­tra­tion into more peace, ease and clar­i­ty. As you prac­tice on the go or at your com­put­er you increase your coher­ence base­line and your abil­i­ty to take charge of your emo­tion­al reac­tions. Health, com­mu­ni­ca­tion, rela­tion­ships and qual­i­ty of life improve.”
