About 30+ years ago, neurobiologists discovered that the human heart has a brain that has many characteristics and capabilities distinct from the cerebral brain with which it communicates. For a quick look at some amazing properties of your heart, watch this short video: Mysteries of the Heart.
A key point to remember:
The heart brain receives and distributes information differently from the cerebral brain. In short, the heart brain receives intelligent information intuitively as feelings, whereas the cortical brain converts information coming from the heart brain into rational thoughts through contact with the five senses. Both systems, constantly working together, help humans, hopefully, to make good, conscious decisions.
Indeed, this new information about how the heart brain functions has opened up great vistas for positive change.
Another key point to consider is the incredible amount of scientific research and discovery showing how every single thing in this universe is unique, yet intimately interconnected and constantly changing. Whether the change is for the good or the bad, especially on this planet, depends on how we developing humans choose to collaborate to bring about harmony, that allows all creatures to thrive.
The HeartMath Conference was entirely dedicated to making this vision a growing work in progress. Besides providing us with scientifically based information on heart brain functions and possible regeneration, it gave us the technical relaxation tools that would allow us all to use a calm and coherent heart brain in such a way as to bring about peace and harmony through compassionate, collaborative engagement.
Thanks for the information. Very interesting!
Good summary, Francois. Yes, we learn more and more all the time about our amazing bodies.
Very informative. Interesting article.
