If you’ve experienced a loved one struggling with memory loss or are concerned about your own mental clarity, you’re not alone. It’s a deeply personal journey for so many of us, and we have compassionate understanding for the pain and overwhelm it can cause.

We created this video, Heart Coherence and Memory: Science‑Backed Hope for Helping Mental Decline, to share with you some hope that’s on the horizon.

Heart Coherence and Memory

More and more research is now finding that heart‑based coherence practices are showing incredible promise in supporting brain health, improving memory, and even slowing cognitive decline – including Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia.

Whether you’re caring for someone else or want to take proactive steps to protect your own mental sharpness, we invite you to watch this video for a deeper understanding of the powerful connection between heart coherence and cognitive well‑being.

Trauma Healing Workshops: How Inner Journey 1 & 2 Can Transform Your Life

May 3, 2025 in News, Research

Introduction

Understanding trauma intellectually and talking about it does not heal us from its effects. While it does, at first, require bringing to light the emotional imprints and core beliefs that have shaped the nervous structure and the patterns that keep us stuck, it then requires practices in intentional awareness of those patterns, and in capacities for self-regulation. At the Center for Heart-Mind Coherence, our Inner Journey 1 & 2 workshops offer a structured, science-backed, and spiritually grounded approach to trauma healing. Whether you are just beginning your healing journey or looking to deepen your transformation, these trauma-healing workshops provide essential tools to help you transform self-defeating cycles and develop a life of clarity, balance, and authentic self-expression.

Inner Journey 1: Understanding & Releasing Core Emotional Addictions

Who is it for? Anyone seeking to identify and transform deep-seated emotional patterns rooted in trauma.

What to Expect:

  • Identify and release self-defeating imprints and core emotional addictions that shape your perceptions and behaviors.
  • Learn to regulate your nervous system through breathwork, self-reflection, and heart-focused attention.
  • Integrate the latest insights from neuroscience, neuro-cardiology, and trauma research to reshape emotional responses.
  • Experience guided meditative and contemplative practices to shift from reactive states to emotional balance.

Inner Journey 2: Deepening Transformation & Intuition

Who is it for? Graduates of Inner Journey 1 who wish to take their healing to the next level.

What to Expect:

  • Strengthen your ability to align emotional energies with clear intentions for authentic living.
  • Move from analytical thinking to deep intuitive awareness.
  • Develop a deeper connection to self-acceptance, emotional regulation, and relational wisdom.
  • Integrate spiritual wisdom and scientific knowledge to release ego-driven responses and embody your true self.

Why These Trauma Healing Workshops Are Cutting Edge

We are grateful to be part of an emerging paradigm of healing that recognizes individual wounds as part of ecosystemic collective trauma: generationally, ancestrally and culturally transmitted. Furthermore, we seamlessly integrate cutting-edge neuroscience and wisdom traditions to align the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual dimensions of human experience, for holistic healing.

✅ Cutting-edge neuroscience on trauma and emotional healing.

✅ Heart-centered breathing and mindfulness techniques to regulate emotions.

✅ Spiritual wisdom from various traditions to cultivate meaning and purpose.

✅ Somatic practices that help rewire the nervous system and release trapped emotional energy.

Take the Next Step in Your Healing Journey

Healing trauma isn’t just about processing the past—it’s about transforming the way you live, relate, and experience life in the present. If you’re ready to embark on a profound journey of self-discovery and emotional freedom, Inner Journey 1 & 2 will provide the tools, guidance, and support you need.
