More harmonious living,
Ever have one of those mornings where you are distressed because you're running late, so you accidentally spill your coffee, and bump your head on the way into the car? OUCH.
It probably started the night before when your mind was racing about this important meeting. Now you're coffee stained, and due to arrive 5 minutes later with a bruise on your forehead.
In this case, your mind took over, your mental rhythm racing you into the future and misplacing time. Your heart was pounding to keep up, and your soul didn't make it to the meeting, to show the best parts of you.
This is a prime example of moving about your day in-coherently. Your system was not working coherently together and hence the outcome less than synergistic.
Now, let's see what may have happened that night before if you got into a state of coherence...
Coherence is physiological state that occurs when the rhythms of the body - the breath, heartbeat, brain rhythms, and hormonal response are in sync with each other (per Heartmath Institute).
The more time our physiology spends in this state the more the mind, body, and soul learn to integrate and work together cohesively. From this state, our day to day life tends to flow with a little more ease.
The next morning, you wake feeling hopeful and excited to set your best foot forward. You eat a healthy meal to feel balanced, and you set out a little early, the meeting even goes well.
Coherence can release the heart happy hormone oxytocin, which offers protective factors to your health, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects are just a few benefits of this state.
Can you think of times where you have been moving from coherence versus out of coherence?
How did you feel in your body, and how did the outcomes differ?
Do you have any practices in mind that create coherence?
Meditation, gratitude, prayer, nature, time with animals, cuddling a loved one?
PS - Looking for an opportunity to experience it yourself? You're invited to our upcoming coherence circle (details below), and welcome to bring a friend!
