emTech™ Media Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Coherence Coach™
What are the system requirements?
Answer: To successfully run the Coherence Coach, your system must equal or surpass the following configuration:
- Pentium III, 4 or similar 700 MHz1 - Mac G3, G4, G5 700 MHz1
- Mac OSX, Windows 2000 and XP2
- 256 MB of RAM, 512MB recommended
- 25 MB of free hard disk space
- Video adapter with support for 65536 colors (16bpp)3
- CD-ROM drive
1 Running the Coherence Coach on processors slower than a Mac G4 or Pentium III running at
700 MHz may result in irregular movement when viewing the animations as well as other performance issues.
2 The Coherence Coach may run on Windows 98, and ME but performance will be poor.
3 The Coherence Coach will run on systems limited to 16 colors, but the results may be less
than spectacular.
What are the primary benefits of using the Coherence Coach?
Answer: The Coherence Coach CD is an entertaining stress relief software application that teaches HeartMath's Quick Coherence
technique for stress relief and increasing performance. Step-by-step, through narration, animations and music, the Coherence Coach gives you the
stress relief training to increase coherence levels.
What is the Quick Coherence® technique and how does it benefit me?
Answer: This powerful, effective technique was developed from research conducted by Doc Childre and scientists at HeartMath. The
effectiveness of HeartMath techniques and technology has been scientifically validated in numerous studies conducted in Fortune 100 companies, major
hospitals, government agencies, universities and schools all over the world.
Why the Quick Coherence Technique Works The “heart breathing” portion of the Quick Coherence technique helps to synchronize your nervous
system and creates positive changes in your heart rhythm patterns. This in turn sends signals to the brain that have a calming and balancing effect
on the brain and entire body.
However, in order to relieve stress, more is required than simply breathing and trying to relax. Emotions, or feelings, have a powerful impact on
the human body. Emotions like frustration, insecurity and depressing feelings are stressful and inhibit optimal health and performance. Positive
emotions like appreciation, care, and love not only feel good, they promote health, performance and well being.

HeartMath’s research demonstrates that when you intentionally shift to a positive emotion, heart rhythms immediately change. A shift in heart
rhythms, from chaotic to coherent, creates a favorable cascade of neural, hormonal, and biochemical events that benefit the entire body. The
stress-reducing effects are both immediate and long-lasting.
Can I access it from my desktop?
Answer: Yes, after you install the Coherence Coach the installer automatically creates an icon on your desktop for easy access. If
for some reason you cannot locate the icon on your desktop you can also access it from your Start menu > All Programs > Quantum Intech >
Coherence Coach.
How do most people use it?
Answer: Most people install the Coherence Coach onto their desktop and use it for short periods of time throughout the day to
rebalance their systems and reach coherence. Some people also like to leave one of the animations on their screen for background images.
