It can show up as tension, mental agitation, sleep problems or persistent fatigue. Among the simple and accessible approaches, heart coherence is an effective method for quickly soothing the nervous system. I had the opportunity to discuss this subject in a column on France Bleu Isère, which you can find below. What is heart coherence? Heart coherence is a breathing technique that involves regulating the breathing rate to act directly on the nervous system. By practising slow, regular breathing, it is possible to: reduce stress soothe emotions improve concentration encourage better sleep It is a simple method that can be practised anywhere and at any time. Why is this method effective? When we are stressed, our breathing becomes faster and shallower. The body then remains in a state of alert. Heart coherence, on the contrary, makes it possible to: slow the heart rate send a soothing signal to the body encourage a return to balance In a few minutes, the body can return to a calmer state. How do you practise heart coherence? A simple method

is to follow this rhythm: breathe in for 5 seconds breathe out for 5 seconds to be repeated for 5 minutes. This practice can be done: in the morning to start the day well in times of stress in the evening to make it easier to fall asleep Heart coherence and support Even if this technique is accessible, it is not always simple to integrate it into your daily life or to regulate on your own a stress that has been established for a long time. As part of sophrology support, these exercises can be adapted and integrated into a more global approach, in order to: better understand your reactions durably soothe tension regain emotional balance Listen to the column You can find here the column broadcast on France Bleu Isère: https://www.francebleu.fr/emissions/conseils-bien-etre/isere/la-coherence-cardiaque-une-methode-anti-stress-avec-ghislaine-morin-sophrologue Returning to a state of calm If you feel stress, tension or difficulty soothing yourself, solutions exist.
