Based on 17 years of extensive research, this award-winning system can make a noticeable difference to your coherence, leading to increased energy and reduced stress levels. Easy to use, the system works by collecting pulse data through an ear sensor which plugs into a USB module connected to a computer. Analysis is done through the software which displays user-friendly graphs in real time, which include heart rate and rhythm patterns, accumulated coherence score and coherence ratio.
CD ROM
Using tutorials, users are quickly able to practise improving their coherence techniques. It gives the user the ability to see how their emotions affect heart rhythms and discover which emotions to activate to more effectively manage stress and boost vitality. The emWave Desktop system features: • The ‘Coherence Coach’ which uses audio instruction, visual imagery and an adjustable breathing pacer to learn and apply the ‘Quick Coherence’ technique • Four exciting games that transform stress into creative energy and add visual stimulus to learning effective coherence techniques. The games – Balloon, Rainbow, Garden and Meadow – react to reduced stress levels and subsequently higher coherence, meaning that the balloon flies higher, the rainbow gets stronger and becomes magical, and the garden and meadow become more alive and flourishing Age 8+
