Howard Martin, from Heartmath, answers viewer questions on reducing stress and the science of creating a deep connection between the heart and brain, in this episode which was originally broadcast live. We explore the very fabric of consciousness, how it is changing and the emotional reactions to our perceptions of stress. All of this is reflected in an electromagnetic field, that surrounds the body, which can be detected and measured.Howard also played a key role in launching the Global Coherence Initiative (GCI), a science-based, co-creative project to unite people in heart-focused care and intention, and thereby to facilitate the shift in global consciousness from instability and discord to balance, cooperation and enduring peace. Join him to discover a powerful source of intelligence that can relieve stress and lift you into a new state of awareness, success and fulfillment. Lisa Garr interviewed Howard Martin during a live webcast on December 7, 2011.
Lisa Garr talks with Howard Martin, executive vice president of HeartMath, a program he helped Doc Childre found in 1991. HeartMath is a powerful research-based technique that helps establish heart-based living by inspiring people to connect with the intelligence and guidance of their own hearts. Where stress creates chaos and disharmony in the body, the HeartMath technique is a way to manage stress, leading to a harmonious state called coherence, which, as Howard demonstrates, can be both measured and monitored.Howard is also on the steering committee of the Global Coherence Initiative, a bold project to unite people in heart-focused care and intention, and thereby to facilitate the shift in global consciousness from instability and discord to balance, cooperation and enduring peace. Can it work? Could, say, 350,000 people, heart-focused together at one time in a coherent state, have an impact on mankind? Join Lisa Garr and Howard Martin in this potentially life-changing conversation and learn about this remarkable experiment where we all may find role in the salvation of our world.
Gregg Braden is a New York Times best-selling author whose pioneering work bridges science and spirituality. His newest book Deep Truth reveals startling new facts that will challenge your beliefs. The world is at a crossroads. We are facing the greatest number and the greatest magnitude of crises ever to face a single generation. Can we choose our future? Can we even plan it?Even as new discoveries come to light that should change our thinking, our institutions are clinging to the old stories, keeping vital knowledge from us. The way we have lived is changing, and to address the crises that are being created we’ve got to think differently than we have ever thought of ourselves before – and we’ve got to change this thinking very quickly. During a live webcast on November 30, 2011, Gregg Braden and Lisa Garr discussed these discoveries and how we can apply this knowledge to our lives for the salvation of our world.
For three decades, Gregg Braden has been searching high mountain villages, remote monasteries, distant archeological digs and forgotten texts in search of mankind’s timeless secrets. He asks, “How can we make the greatest choices for our survival until we know the deepest truths of our existence?” He wrote his latest book, Deep Truth, because these are critical times; never has a generation been faced with so many crises all within the same window in time.Gregg finds that society is stuck in outmoded ways of thinking because our media and educational institutions are failing to include the latest scientific discoveries in what they disseminate. He tackles our outdated myths head-on, including that nature is based on survival of the strongest or that war and competition are hard-wired into mankind. Cooperation, he insists, is a higher survival principle. And he points to excavations of civilizations twice as ancient as the ones we imagine to be the oldest, with elaborate cities that lack all evidence of war – no walls, no weapons, no mass graves. Looking at these ancient civilizations can reveal alternative approaches. In particular, he propose a heart-based solution that can unite and benefit all humankind.

When you try to change an old habit, do you wonder why it’s so difficult to change? Do you want to learn how to be more positive or resilient, but don’t know how? In this eye-opening and potentially life-changing interview with Lisa Garr, Dr. Joe Dispenza, a neuroscientist, chiropractor and author, explains how our habits are wired into our brains and what we can do about them.He notes, “Nerve cells that fire together, wire together.” There is something of a feedback loop at work: As you repeat your activities, the brain’s pathways stay wired to repeat that activity, and so it becomes even more difficult to change. Repetition reinforces brain behavior, and by, say, age 35, our identity becomes a set of memorized behaviors.Change is possible, but it takes some effort and stepping out of our comfort zone. But every time you have a new thought or new activity, the neurons create new pathways (and there is dramatic video showing this happening). Dr. Dispenza explains the steps you can take to change your life, how it works and why it can be beneficial beyond your ability to imagine. Don’t miss this astonishing conversation.

Shamanic healer Alberto Villoldo and Lisa Garr continue their detailed conversation about shamanic medicine. Our bodies come programmed for the longevity of the species, rather than the individual. For this reason, once we pass our peak reproductive years, our body’s systems no longer operate or regenerate as well as they did.

Marianne Williamson explores the meaning of “I am,” especially through her long practice with A Course in Miracles. She contrasts the pressures of society, which lead us away from our true nature, with our connection with spirit, where we find our actual self. In this lively interview with Lisa Garr, originally webcast on March 2, 2016, she also points out that many of us today are working to bring down light to the world, stressing the importance for all of us to understand that we are all ministers who bring blessings by our doing. “I am love,” she states, adding, “If I’m acting in any other way I’m not being who I truly am.”Marianne Williamson is an internationally acclaimed spiritual author and lecturer. Marianne has been a popular guest on television programs such as Oprah, Larry King Live, Good Morning America, Charlie Rose & Bill Maher. Six of her eleven published books have been New York Times Best Sellers. Four of these have been #1. The mega best seller A Return to Love is considered a must-read of The New Spirituality. A paragraph from that book, beginning “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure…” is considered an anthem for a contemporary generation of seekers.
For Barbara Marx Hubbard, the meaning of “I am” comes from the source of creation, and it is an impulse that for billions of years has been creating quarks, electron, protons, animals, and now humans. I am the universe in person, she adds, so the “I am” principle in every one of us is actually our unique experience of the creative impulse of the universe. In this far-seeing and hopeful interview with Lisa Garr, originally webcast on March 9, 2016, Barbara explains the importance of people who are already loving coming together to create a field of attraction and a vision of the future to overcome the negativity of old ways to generate a transformative evolutionary consciousness.Barbara Marx Hubbard is a visionary and a social innovator. She thinks from an evolutionary perspective and believes that global change happens when we work collectively and selflessly for the greater good, and many would agree she is the global ambassador for conscious change. Deepak Chopra has called her “the voice for conscious evolution.” A prolific author and educator, she has written seven books on social and planetary evolution and she has produced, hosted and contributed to countless documentaries seen by millions of people around the world.
For Jean Houston, “I Am” is the ultimate Western mantra – a core memory that is both sound and purpose. Even as we are in the universe, the universe is in us. And once we realize that we are the universe, we have access to many of its powers and capacities. In a fascinating example, in this provocative interview, originally webcast on March 16, 2016, she describes some modest experiments she’s tried in shifting the past, to edit, in a sense, the quantum field. This becomes possible, she explains, because in quantum physics, time past, present and future are simultaneous, and also, most essentially, because belief structures time and reality.Jean Houston, Ph.D., scholar, philosopher and researcher in Human Capacities, is one of the foremost visionary thinkers and doers of our time. She is long regarded as one of the principal founders of the Human Potential Movement. Dr. Houston is noted for her ability to combine a deep knowledge of history, culture, new science, spirituality and human development into her teaching.

The functions of our brain and body chemistry can work to our benefit or detriment, depending on where we place our attention. If we rest our attention in our heart – biologically, the center of oneness – and cultivate an elevated emotion, such as gratitude or joy or love of life, and feel it deeply, we can expand our energy field to the degree we can feel connected to the greater unified field. In this eye-opening interview, originally webcast on March 30, 2016, Joe Dispenza explains that when you are in that state, there are 1,300 chemicals that are released that stimulate your immune system, that cause regeneration and repair in the body, and lengthen telomeres as well.Neuroscientist, chiropractor and author Dr. Joe Dispenza empowers people to change from the inside out.

Taking her expertise in the mind/body connection several steps further, Joan Borysenko explains the new research in interpersonal neurobiology, where, for example, our minds also affect those around us, and in epigenetics, where events in our lives – and even in our ancestor’s lives – can cause changes in our genetic make-up. In this enlightening interview, originally webcast on April 6, 2016, Joan also discusses the results of her scientific investigation into a healthy diet, in which she discovered that humans’ dietary needs vary enough that no one diet works for everyone. However, she also discovered the importance of a plant-based diet to feed the microbes in our body, which science now understands outnumber our own cells.Joan Borysenko, Ph.D., is a distinguished pioneer in integrative medicine and a world-renowned expert in the mind/body connection. She is a Harvard-trained medical scientist, licensed psychologist and New York Times best-selling author, with more than a dozen books to her credit.

That's a question Lisa Garr, who is contemplating a new venture, asks Colette Baron-Reid in this insightful interview, originally webcast on April 27, 2016. Colette responds that fear and stress contract the mind and do not allow the “I Am” to be operating in your favor.

What is consciousness? Does it arise from the brain? Does it die when we do? Or is it something beyond, that continues after the body’s demise? This essential question occupied Eben Alexander, who spent 54 years honing a scientific worldview as a neurosurgeon until a near-death experience took him on a profound spiritual journey into ultra-real realms, far more real than this one. Today, working to bridge the gap between science and spirituality, he is convinced that following the scientific evidence reveals that when you die it’s not the end of your existence and reincarnation is absolutely real. Explore what it means to live your life when you know that consciousness never dies.
We can learn to use pain as a teacher. In short, everything we experience becomes part of our evolution. Growing up as an empath, Matt Kahn found that any time someone treated him in a hostile way, he would naturally see the person’s pain that generated the attack, and so he found himself responding with compassion instead of aggression. In time, he realized that love is always the answer. He invites us to recognize that the most difficult things that ever happen to us are meant to be the greatest opportunities we’re given to grow and evolve.
Taking an evolutionary perspective on the 13.7 billion years since the big bang, Barbara Marx Hubbard, a true American visionary, explores our path to creating a better culture of love, of creativity, and of wholeness, on the way to creating a new species in ourselves — the universal human.

Can past life regression heal your present life? Does your soul evolve from one life to the next? Linda Backman specializes in past life regression, which she calls spiritual regression, and, as she’s discovered with her clients, not every lifetime has necessarily been on Earth. She has no doubt that the soul reincarnates, and that the incarnations are designed for our spiritual advancement.

Mark Nepo, poet, philosopher, and spiritual advisor, spent twelve years gathering stories and lessons of community from across cultures and history as research for his latest book exploring the universality of community. Just as humans can grow from facing challenges, communities come together in disaster. Because we are wired to care about each other for our wellbeing, community builds coherence.

Supplementing the fascinating conversation about health and sustainability, Brigitte further demonstrates her encyclopedic knowledge by touring the grounds at Gaia’s headquarters, explaining the uses of plants found growing wild.
The heart is doing more than pumping blood, says Howard Martin of HeartMath. The physical heart is an information processing center in our bodies. There exists a complex nerve system in the heart, which communicates directly to the brain. Research shows that brain function is critically dependent on the information from the heart, and their alignment leads to states of personal, interpersonal, and global coherence. Martin brings us up-to-date on the remarkable research HeartMath is doing in this arena. The spirit of humanity is rising to the occasion, he says, and we are ushering in a new and very different world right in the midst of the old one.Howard Martin is one of the original leaders who helped Doc Childre found HeartMath. He is coauthor of The HeartMath Solution and author of The HeartMath Method.
We have to get comfortable with being uncomfortable, says HeatherAsh Amara, author of Warrior Goddess Training and Awaken Your Inner Fire. We must learn to advocate for ourselves, rather than constantly comparing ourselves to who we think we’re supposed to be — and finding ourselves coming up short.

She brings an openhearted, inclusive worldview to her writings and teachings, which are a rich blend of Toltec wisdom, European shamanism, Buddhism, and Native American ceremony.
Clinical neuropsychologist Mario Martinez brings together insights from medicine, psychology, anthropology and spirituality to create biocognitive science. He insists that mind and body are inseparable from culture; that culture determines how we see ourselves in the world and so has a direct effect on our health.

Martinez advises asking yourself, “What can I do today to believe that I’m a good person?” Give yourself permission to be yourself.

Anita Moorjani wants sensitive people to know what they have is not a weakness, but a strength — and that the planet needs their contributions. She offers tools that allow intuitive beings to be strong in a fear-based world. Some years after surviving her death from stage four cancer, she came to understand that she was a sensitive intuitive and that fear had been a source of her illness.

Suffering is the common denominator of being human; sooner or later, every one of us walks through hell. Rabbi Steve Leder’s hope is that no one has to walk through hell and come out empty handed. He speaks of how to find meaning in suffering and resolve to live a life worthy of the ordeal.

Humming can increase oxygen, decrease cortisol, and increase nitric oxide; it can create and enhance melatonin, oxytocin, and endorphins. From tuning the chakras to experiencing the Earth’s resonance, from the sounds for prayer to, most astonishingly, the sound of the Divine Name that God revealed to Moses, we see why the use of sound as a healing tool dates back thousands of years.Jonathan is a writer, musician and teacher as well as an authority on sound healing and a pioneer in the field of harmonics. He has studied with masters of sound from both the scientific and spiritual traditions, including the Dalai Lama’s Chanting Gyuto and Gyume Monks and has been empowered by the Chant Master of the Drepung Loseling Monastery to teach Tibetan Overtone Chanting.
