Howdy,

I was not sure where to put this topic. But I think it fits in well with this forum and the topics posted here.

I have been wanting to post about this for quite a while as it is one of my favorite websites and its a subject I am deeply interested in and I am reading several books related to this field. So its pretty dear to my heart. It's something I am involved in as well and a member of.

A small excerpt from the website about the Global Coherence Initiative:

The Global Coherence Initiative is a science-based initiative uniting millions of people in heart-focused care and intention, to shift global consciousness from instability and discord to balance, cooperation and enduring peace.

This project has been launched by the Institute of HeartMath®, a nonprofit 501©(3), a recognized global leader in researching emotional physiology, heart-brain interactions and the physiology of optimal health and performance.

The Global Coherence Initiative is designed to help individuals and groups work together, synchronistically and strategically to increase the impact of their efforts to create positive global change.

This is a link to a special project they just started doing this week:

It's more of a mental ,social, science maybe even a bit of a spiritual approach. But I also think that our mental attitudes, thoughts and beliefs reflect and help as well. It shapes the way we respond physically to each other and to the problems we need to solve around the world to make it a better place.

So it might not be for everyone because we all have different outlooks on things, but for those interested in this type of thing I thought I would share it. It might be a great source for doing something else on top of any other activities that some of you maybe be doing or looking into doing. It's something a little different. Another facet for viewing things

Gregg Braden one of my favorite authors helps head up this movement. He has a lot of great books related to this subject and more.

I'd love to also see any other sites that people have on this subject or things they might know about pertaining to it.

Thanks and hope you enjoy it.

I have read a little about this group. Are they the ones who would like to have it more taught to make a conscious choice and get the kids involved to understand what is going on and how to make a difference in an everyday decision.

I will look up the sites later- I do think that anyone who lives on this planet Earth needs to be aware that the simpliest things we do can help or environment and the future of this planet.

thanks for sharing this here...

Hhmm how to explain, I understand it but I am not always good and putting things into words with things like this.
The Global Coherence Initiative focus' on heart felt, heart based emotion and feeling and the effects it can have on people the world areas of the world. For instance they would do a care focus on say Italy when they had the earthquake. They asked for people to focus their thoughts towards that part of the world sending care and compassion to the people there. One of the care focus' they are doing now is on China and Taiwan. And they are also doing two minute radiance experiment for people to take two minutes a day focusing on sending love and compassion to the world.

It's a very interesting subject that a lot of research and study behind and it has become very in depth with all the studies and research they are doing on it. In layman's terms it's kind of like when you tell someone you are going to send "good vibes" their way or send them some good mojo, sending well wish or thoughts to someone who is not sick etc. It's very much along those lines.

But they have done studies that heart felt, heart based emotions and compassion not just thoughts but heart based, have an effect when you send it out to a certain area or person. Sending feelings of peace and good will. It's a really fascinating subject. I guess its a long the same lines of prayer. But this one has a neutrality based core with out any type of religious affiliation to any particular faith. Its a pretty neutral site in that respect. And it does focus a lot on caring for the environment with the belief that good will to peoples, countries etc. is a part of that as well.

The website explains a lot of that. Also look up things on the subject of "heart math". This site is interesting and closely connected with what is going on on the GCI site.

Anyway I am totally enthralled with this subject, so I could go on and on about it. But I will hush now.
