Dear Visitor/Customer,

The economic stress caused by the global economic crisis has impacted individuals and families and can bring long term health problems. This, in turn, can multiply and intensify negative thoughts and emotions. While the Great Recession is over for Wall Street, it is not over for millions of Americans. Stress management should be one of your major priorities. Heart centered prayer by your inner person can make a sustainable contribution in this area.

Our mission is also to communicate and promote stress management strategies and products from HeartMath, Inc. Stress and its relationship to disease prevention and quality of life impacts your total person (which is your inner person) on many levels. Your total person is your mind (spirit), body, heart, and soul. Our spiritual life is a vital part of our holistic health strategy.

The pictures at the top are of Saints Cosmas and Damian - patron Saints of health care and disease prevention in the Eastern Orthodox Tradition. They were chosen to emphasize that holistic health is about more than the body. It is about your body, mind, heart, spirit and soul and their synergistic interaction directed by your inner person which is no longer under control of the passions.

This website explores the question of heart based Transpersonal Health. Can transpersonal non-local dimensions have an impact on our health - both positive and negative? Many will answer this question with cerebral based solutions, but we base our health exploration model in the heart. Developing Inter-dimensional health keeps our body, mind (spirit), heart, and soul in inter-dimensional balance.

The heart is the key to holistically reorienting the energies of your inner person. The heart should be your center or base of operations for integrating your mind (spirit), body, heart and soul. We need all of our faculties functioning as a team. When you are using your heart intelligence correctly it is a major aid in managing stress. The first step in using this intelligence is to focus or center your attention, which is a subtle faculty of your spirit, in your heart.
Stress is a term used to describe the wear and tear the body and soul experience in reaction to everyday tensions and pressures.

Change, illness, injury or career and lifestyle changes, are common causes of stress, however, it's the affects of stress, like pressure and tension, that we feel in response to the little everyday hassles-like rush hour traffic, waiting in line, and too many emails-that do the most damage. Feelings of anger, jealousy, and hatred also cause stress and are symptoms of an unhealthy soul.Stress and the effects of stress are often misunderstood. We look at outside events as the source of stress, but in fact stress is really caused by our emotional reactions to events. The stress we experience in today's world often goes unnoticed and unmanaged. Many people have simply adapted to stress in an unhealthy way, resigned to thinking it's "just the way it is". Unfortunately, lack of stress management has created a pandemic of low-grade anxiety and depression which directly effects the immune and the endocrine systems.

It is the best that most of us are capable of, as we are now. It is better than not praying at all, but it explains why prayer seems so flat and frustrating to us so much of the time. Because this low level of prayer, in which the logical mind instead of the nous (spirit) is trying to commune with God, is so frustrating, most of us give up on trying to pray.

Emotions, or feelings, have a powerful impact on the human body. Emotions like frustration, insecurity and depressing feelings are stressful and inhibit optimal health and relief from stress. Positive emotions like appreciation, care, and love not only feel good, they promote health, performance and well-being. The key to sustainable positive emotions is sustained positive attention in your heart.

The heart is the center and summation of the faculties of the soul - the intelligent, the appetitive (desire) and the incensive (affective, what we call the temper).
A growing body of evidence is demonstrating that life stress, including negative emotions and negative attention, can alter immune function, thus impacting the body's ability guard against disease and maintain health.

Chronic activation of cortisol, the body's response to stress, can produce unhealthy physiological outcomes including increased blood pressure, diabetes, arteriosclerosis, immune systems suppression, to name but a few. Sustained negative emotions have also been shown to contribute to these problems (for more on the effects of negative emotions see the Techniques page).

Developing sustained, positive emotions will contribute to greater well being and enhanced quality of life. So Get Well and Stay Well! Start Improving your quality of life today! Your are worth the investment. Learn to focus your attention, which is a subtle faculty of your spirit, in your heart!

Sincerely,

C.L. Kennedy, RPh. DHPH
