Interview with Bruce Cryer

Heart Intelligence and What Makes Your Heart Sing

We spoke to Bruce Cryer from Heartmath about heart intelligence, its links with multiple Brain Integration and his new project 'What makes your heart sing' and why it's so vitally important to focus on finding joy and passion every single day. Bruce is Global Director, HeartMath HealthCare, founding director of HeartMathUK and HeartMath South Africa, and co-founder of What Makes Your Heart Sing. For eleven years he served as CEO at HeartMath (USA), an innovative research‐based firm offering scientifically-validated products and award‐winning technology to boost performance, productivity and health while reducing stress. Bruce’s clients include Kaiser Permanente, Mayo Clinic, Stanford University, the NHS (UK), HP, NASA, Boeing, L’Oreal, and the Samueli Institute. He is co‐author of the book "From Chaos to Coherence: The Power to Change Performance" and the Harvard Business Review article “Pull the Plug on Stress”. Bruce has been a faculty member of the Stanford Executive Program since 1997 and was named a Top 50 Thought Leader in Personal Excellence. He has been interviewed for or written in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Inc. magazine, Fast Company, Modern Healthcare, Leadership Excellence, and medical journals such as Stress Medicine as well as many other business and health publications. A series of major health challenges convinced Bruce to transition to a variety of new roles more closely matching his passions. A former actor/singer/dancer on Broadway, he has even revived his singing and dancing skills as a “keynote performer” helping audiences align your work with what is most alive and inspired in your heart.
