The HeartMath Institute explains how the heart and brain communicate with each other, and how their connection affects our perception. The heart emits a strong electromagnetic field around the entire body, which is also encoded with emotional information. Research shows that when we focus on a positive emotion, it not only benefits our overall health and well-being, but can also have a positive affect on others.
