Did you know that your heart actually has a brain?

These research-backed methods lower anxiety, reduce stress, and improve overall health and happiness. Learn how to calm your nervous system, reduce cortisol levels and increase coherence between your heart and brain.
What you will gain from this program:
• You will learn breath techniques to calm, energize and clear the mind and body
• Experience a variety of mindfulness practices to fit easily into your daily life
