Introducing the Heartfulness Project

Abstract

The Heartfulness Project was developed as an integrative programme for people suffering from heart disorders. The programme has been trialled twice and the results are positive: people with cardiovascular diseases feel more optimistic and less stressed when they incorporate the new skills as taught in the programme into their lives. This paper provides the details of the project in terms of its context including the lead author’s personal experience as well as its outcome and offers further discussion.
