Hey,

It’s been a while. I haven’t posted because I refuse to add noise to your life. If I’m going to show up here, it needs to give you something you can’t get everywhere else.

So here’s what I’ve been sitting with, and food for thought – whether you already know this or not:

Your heart knows before your brain does

Did you know that your heart sends more signals to your brain than your brain sends to your heart? About 90% of the nerve fibres in the vagus nerve carry information UP from the heart to the brain, not the other way around.

Your heart is sensing, learning, and deciding – 5 to 7 seconds before your conscious mind catches up.

I am not trying to be poetic; this is just neurocardiology – a whole field of research showing that your heart has its own neural network, its own brain with roughly 40,000 neurons.

And you’ll recognise the “story” : The heart detects a threat (real or perceived) so it alerts your brain to narrow focus, release cortisol, and scan for danger.

When your heart feels safe and coherent, it tells your brain to relax the grip, broaden awareness, and release oxytocin and DHEA (your repair and longevity hormones). A great emission-reception system allows a clear, united message 😉You cannot be “spiritual” with an empty stomach.

Explore your mind, and listen to that heart, because it doesn’t just pump blood. It sets the tone for everything else. And here’s the part that changes everything: you can train it.

The 0.1 Hz Secret (That Most People Miss)

HeartMath research proved something remarkable when they studied heart rate variability (HRV):

When you’re stressed, anxious, or running on autopilot, your heart rhythm looks chaotic and jagged – what they call incoherent.

But when you shift into appreciation, gratitude, or calm focus – even for just 60 seconds – your heart rhythm shifts into a smooth, sine-wave pattern oscillating at approximately 0.1 Hz.

ONE MINUTE. To put this in perspective: 0.1 Hz means your heart rhythm completes one full cycle every 10 seconds – about 6 cycles per minute. This is much slower than your resting heart rate (which is typically 60-100 beats per minute). What we’re talking about here is the rhythm pattern of your heartbeat variability, not the beat itself.

This 0.1 Hz frequency is special because it’s the resonant frequency of your cardiovascular system – the natural sweet spot where your heart, lungs, and brain synchronise most efficiently.

Also sidenote-for anyone who always has  “high readings” even after being heavily meditated (with a T. MediTated not a C. I am not a pharma fan- just a farma fan).

If you genuinely believe you have a “heartbeat

  When you hit it, this specific frequency triggers:

✨ Synchronisation of your heart, brain, and respiratory system
✨ A cascade of 1,400+ biochemical changes in your body
✨ Amplified alpha brain waves (calm alertness and creativity)
✨ Increased IgA production (your immune system’s first line of defense)
✨ A shift from sympathetic (fight-or-flight) to parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) dominance

Think of it like tuning a radio to the exact right frequency – suddenly everything comes in clear. Your entire system starts working together instead of fighting itself.

And you can access it in under 2 minutes with the right technique.

Join us online, on Thursday – 3 fundamentals of “navigating life” and the Coherence technique – with the map in 45 minutes

Thursday 30th January: £10 Live Zoom Reset – Learn the 0.1 Hz Coherence Technique

This is exactly what we’ll practice together. Science-backed. Immediately useful. No fluff. Small group, the A.C.E way.

What changes when you hit coherence?

Incoherent StateCoherent State (0.1 Hz)
Jagged heart rhythmSmooth sine wave pattern
Cortisol dominantDHEA + oxytocin release
Threat scanning (narrow focus)Possibility perception (open awareness)
Immune function suppressedEnhanced IgA production
Prefrontal cortex offlineExecutive function engaged
Reactive, scatteredClear, responsive

Not “woo-woo”: This isn’t about feeling better. This is measurable physiological optimisation.

Why Your Best Intentions Keep Failing

Here’s the uncomfortable part:

Your heart’s electromagnetic field is 5,000 times stronger than your brain’s electrical field and extends 5-8 feet outside your body.

Other people’s nervous systems can literally sense it. (Ever walked into a room and felt the tension without anyone saying a word? That’s electromagnetic field detection. A superpower that can be developed through inner, personal work. And it can become clarity – clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience… CLAIR (Masc) CLAIRE (Fem). Clarity.)

So when you’re trying to manifest abundance, confidence, or connection – but your heart is broadcasting threat, unworthiness, or scarcity – the field wins.

Your brain can recite affirmations all day. Your heart is louder.

This is why:

  • The job interview went sideways even though you prepared
  • The relationship didn’t shift even though you tried so hard
  • The opportunity didn’t land even though you were ready

You weren’t broadcasting the signal that matches what you wanted.

But here’s the good news: once you know this, you can change it. Not through willpower. Through coherence.

The “Nervous System” nobody told you about

Most people think the nervous system is just sympathetic (fight-or-flight) and parasympathetic (rest-and-digest).

But there’s a third state- have you heard of  the “Social engagement system” – discovered by Dr. Stephen Porges in the Polyvagal Theory.

Funny name but it’s the part of your nervous system that allows you to feel safe AND alert at the same time. It’s the state where you can:

  • Think clearly under pressure
  • Connect authentically with others
  • Take risks without panic
  • Hold boundaries without aggression

It’s mediated by the ventral vagal nerve – and it only comes online when your body feels genuinely safe.

Look at our lifestyle… when do you switch off?

Most have been running on sympathetic activation for so long, their bodies have forgotten what safety feels like.

They’re not anxious. They’re chronically activated. And they’ve adapted so well they don’t even notice anymore.

This is why rest feels uncomfortable. Why doing nothing feels wrong. Why it feels like “boring”- and your body won’t let you relax even when you should be able to.

Your nervous system hasn’t received the signal that the threat is over.

And this is where kinesiology, EFT, and coherence training come in – because you can’t think your way into ventral vagal. You have to resource your way there.

Why Kinesiology & Holistic techniques find what talk therapy misses?

Your subconscious mind processes 11 million bits of information per second.

Your conscious mind processes about 40. That means 99.99996% of what is running your life is happening below conscious awareness. How could you address something you are not aware of in the first place?

Kinesiology uses muscle testing to bypass the conscious mind and speak directly to the body’s innate intelligence.And memories.

 We’re asking the nervous system itself: Where is the block? What needs to be released? What’s ready to shift?

Then we correct the imbalances with ACE tools – includes acupressure, neuro-reprogramming, breathwork, and energetic rebalancing – not through insight, but through release/ discharge and repatterning. We tap into the cutting edge latest of Neuroplasticity.

EFT (tapping) works on the same principle: stimulating meridian endpoints while holding an emotional charge sends a deactivation signal straight to the amygdala. The threat response calms. The pattern loosens.

You don’t have to understand why you feel stuck. You just have to let the body process what it’s been holding.

The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy You Didn’t Know You Were Running

Here’s the loop most people are stuck in:

Belief → Nervous system state → Perception filter → Behaviour → Outcome → Belief confirmed

If you believe (consciously or not) that you’re not enough, your nervous system scans for evidence. And it WILL find them. Your interoceptive awareness narrows. You miss the smile. You misread the tone. You hesitate at the wrong moment. And then the thing you feared? It happens.

NOT because you attracted it. Because your physiology created the conditions that made it inevitable. But here’s what changes everything:

When you shift your nervous system state FIRST – before you try to change your thoughts – the perception filter changes. You notice different data. Different possibilities. Different outcomes.

This is why coherence practice is so powerful. You’re not trying to think positive. You’re resetting the signal at source so your brain can perceive what was always there.

Your Body Already Knows

Nobody can give you your answers. Not me. Not any guru. Not any system.

What I can do is help you hear your own body again.

Because your body already knows:

  • What’s true and what’s programming
  • What’s yours to carry and what you absorbed from others
  • What wants to shift and what needs more time
  • The next step, even when your mind is spinning

The work isn’t about finding the right path. It’s about clearing the interference so you can feel the path that’s already there.

That’s what coherence gives you. That’s what kinesiology reveals. That’s what nervous system regulation makes possible. Clarity isn’t something you achieve. It’s something you uncover.

What Does This Mean For You?

If you’re reading this and your body responded before your mind could catch up – if something landed in your chest, your gut, your throat – that’s your signal! 

Maybe it’s time to stop trying to think your way through.
Maybe it’s time to regulate first, then decide.
Maybe it’s time to reset the signal your heart is broadcasting.

Some “lighter work” maybe?
