New Definition of Health by HeartMath x itmotf

HealthScienceWell-beingModern Human









London, August 2024
Written by Alex Bäuml & Sofia Luna 







At itmotf, we define health as:

In the coming years, we may come to understand health not merely as the absence of disease but rather as the capacity to share, display and enjoy one’s gifts, connect to a larger sense of meaning, and maintain inner coherence in the face of personal, relational and environmental changes.

 

Inspired by HeartMath’s definition of health:

“We are coming to understand health not as the absence of disease, but rather as the process by which individuals maintain their sense of coherence (i.e. sense that life is comprehensible, manageable, and meaningful) and abaility to function in the face of changes in themselves and their relationships with their environment.” 


To learn more about HeartMath and their research exploring the relationship between emotions and the human heart, read this chapter in their e-Book Science of the Heart.
