Stemming from the work of the HeartMath Institute (founded in 1991), cardiac coherence is a technique of autonomic regulation centered on heart rate variability. Through rhythmic breathing, it aims to optimize this variability, a marker of good autonomic health. Its field of choice is that of anxiety disorders and the somatic manifestations of chronic stress.
