Heart Math is a tool designed to help you learn how to create relaxed breathing and reduce the stress-affect on the body. Look at most sleeping babies and you’ll see natural belly breathing. Somewhere along our lives, most of us lose that ability. Re-learning how to breathe reduces tension on our hearts, reduces blood pressure, and helps with other imbalances such as anxiety, insomnia, and brain fatigue.

A session with Dr. Rodgers includes one-on-one instruction using a computer-based biofeedback program that gently guides you into the relaxed breathing technique.

An initial 30-minute session is $70; follow-up 15-minute sessions are $45.

Practice at home. Once trained, rental of a portable unit for $25/week can be used to re-enforce breathing technique and help you through stressful situations.
