(PRWEB via PRWebDirect) May 22, 2007 -- HeartMath® essentially reinvented biofeedback in 1999 with the first affordable consumer stress-reduction product using heart rhythm feedback, versus brainwave analysis. HeartMath, known for its research-based stress solutions, is now unveiling their new generation software program called emWave® PC Stress Relief System, designed to help you reduce stress and reset your inner balance. A revolutionary lifestyle tool, emWave PC allows you to effectively gain greater control of your emotions without major life changes. emWave PC, formerly the award-winning Freeze-Framer® program, offers fresh new features that significantly enrich its benefits and entertainment value. This sophisticated redesign also includes integrated web access and the Coherence Coach™, a proprietary training method.
The emWave PC Stress Relief System (www.emwavepc.com) is based on HeartMath's 16 years of scientific research demonstrating the critical link between emotions, heart function, and cognitive performance. Science has shown that when we experience and sustain heartfelt emotions like appreciation or care, it has a profoundly beneficial effect on our heart, cognitive functions, and overall health.

emWave PC essentially mirrors your emotional state by collecting information from your heart through a USB finger or ear-clip sensor that plugs into your computer. emWave PC trains you to achieve a high level of coherence - a measurable state that occurs when the heart, brain, and nervous system are working in harmony. When we activate this state we feel and perform better and can recover from stressful episodes quickly.
The program translates heart rhythm information into user-friendly graphics on your computer screen. As you apply the stress-reducing Quick Coherence® technique learned from the program, you see your heart rhythms change in real time as you move out of stress and into a more balanced, regenerative emotional state.
emWave PC allows you to track your progress and has three colorful interactive games powered by your ability to transform stress into renewed energy. A new feature of emWave PC is its Emotion Visualizer™, a practice application that provides stunning images which emit varying degrees of color and movement as you adjust your emotional state.

It includes a hands-free option and animated instructional CD-Rom that guides you through the Quick Coherence technique.

Respected organizations including Kaiser Permanente, Veterans Administration, and University of North Carolina are exploring the benefits of these technologies with various health challenges including anxiety, stress, ADHD, and hypertension.
