HeartMath
Adding heart translates into increased care and genuine connection with others and harmonizes the resistance between our own mind and heart. Adding heart is especially about practicing kindness and compassion, along with forgiveness and latitude in our interactions. Adding heart increases the love flowing through our system, which can play a large part in solving the collective challenges of these transitional times.
HMI has developed reliable, scientifically validated tools since 1991 helping people reduce and avoid stress while experiencing increased peace, satisfaction and enjoyment. Research at the HeartMath Institute shows that, adding heart to our daily activities and connections produces measurable benefits to our own and others’ well-being.
We are at the dawn of recognizing Love as the new transformational intelligence.
School of Remembering
The School of Remembering was created by Drunvalo Melchizedek to foster individual growth and increase the understanding of the human consciousness revolution that is now occurring. The School is your host to powerful eye, mind and heart changing experiences. Our programs are designed by a global network of over 300 guides and leaders to help you achieve the highest levels of peace, health and wellness.
Health, peace and wellness are different experiences for everyone and the process can vary according to one’s individual degree of awareness, personal vibration, spiritual practice and even individual purpose on the planet. We all have a calling and its up to each of us to reach out and grasp our place in time.
Our happiness on a physical, mental and emotional or even spiritually level is about energy and consciousness. As one begins to experience new energies and new levels of consciousness, old patterns, behaviors, and beliefs that have limited one’s perception and kept their vibration in a denser state of being, begin to re-emerge. The Workshop Programs offered by the School of Remembering are designed to help people move past their own barriers and realize their own empowerment so they can remember and reconnect with their own place in the universe.

For those ready and committed to spiritual awakening this process is an opportunity for a quantum leap in wholeness.

The fact that you experience doing this for yourself and obtain the skills and tools makes it possible to keep the reunified field clear, intact and vibrationally in harmony with your body. Having a strong feeling of enthusiasm and knowing that this is right for you will determine your experience with moving powerfully to a new level of Self and allowing your whole Self to be expressed.

Connecting with the Heart’s Intelligence
Nassim Haramein
Nassim Haramein has spent more than 30 years researching and discovering connections in physics, mathematics, geometry, cosmology, quantum mechanics, biology and chemistry as well as anthropology and archeology. These studies led Haramein to groundbreaking theories, published papers and patented inventions in unified physics, which are now gaining worldwide recognition and acceptance.
Haramein’s findings are based on a fundamental geometric quantization of spacetime, formalizing a unification between the quantum scale and cosmological-sized objects, including the universe itself. Haramein’s seminal paper “Quantum Gravity and the Holographic Mass” was published in the peer-reviewed journal Physical Review & Research International in 2013. Utilizing a generalized holographic principle, the paper predicted a precise value of the charge radius of the proton which disagreed with the Standard Model by 4%. This prediction was later confirmed by a team of scientists at the Paul Scherrer Institute utilizing muons in a proton accelerator. The measurement has since been validated by the adjusted 2018 CODATA value of the proton RMS charge radius.

Ron LaPlace
Ron’s relationship to the esoteric nature of life began when he dropped out of university and instead began taking the College Lessons of the Brotherhood of the White Temple. That relationship with metaphysics continues to this day. A decade later he had built the 1st solar-powered home in Canada in a remote part of northern Alberta. Solar power was almost unheard of at that time and it became a business that eventually took Ron to many parts of the world to install solar systems and to perform research for the Canadian government on developing new ways to use solar power. Two decades later Ron closed the business and began a new career, teaching the principles of sacred geometry and meditation in a form known as the Flower of Life. He continues that work today in it’s present form, known as Awakening to Illuminated Heart.
15 years ago he also began a journey with learning new ways of working with sound to assist in bringing balance to the energy systems of the body – be they physical, mental, emotional or spiritual. Ron assisted in developing a new technique known as the Fibonacci Process™ that brings together the knowledge of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Sacred Geometry.The most recent iteration of this work has now incorporated a combination of new technology and Spirit in ways that assist individuals and larger groups in finding the balance known as the Unified Field. This work is named SpiritTec™ and is the foundation for this website.
