Master emotional regulation for success, sport, stress and life.
Heart Dynamics reads your heart-rate variability in real time and trains you into coherence — a measured, repeatable state of calm, alert control. Breathe with the pacer, watch your nervous system settle on screen, then learn to hold it while the pressure rises.
Your KYTO Bluetooth sensor is included and posted to you — no separate hardware to buy. Works in Chrome or Edge on desktop and Android; demo mode needs no hardware at all.
Real science, two decades of practice
Coherence isn't a wellness buzzword — it was mapped in Soviet space medicine, where cardiologists learned to read a cosmonaut's whole regulatory state from the rhythm of their heartbeat, and to deliberately train it into a smooth, resonant wave.
The Mind Academy has been applying that work since 2004 — first with anxiety clients on a Discovery Channel series, and in the years since with therapists, coaches, athletes and performers. Heart Dynamics puts the same training in your hands, with a sensor and a live signal, so you can find the state yourself and learn to hold it on demand.
Train your nervous system like a game
Every exercise is driven by one thing: your own heart rhythm. Hold coherence and the world on screen responds. It feels like moving things with your mind — because, in a real sense, you are.
Raise stones with your mind
Sit still, hold coherence, and lift the stones — small, then medium, then large. No hands. Just a steady heart.
Bloom a tree with your heart
A bare grey tree comes into leaf, then blossom, then birds — grown entirely by how long you hold the state.
Turn red into calm
Warm a figure from stressed red, through orange, to a glowing green — the colour of your own nervous system settling.
Hold your nerve under fire
Keep coherence while chaos flashes and roars around you. Five levels of pressure, and a Composure score for how well you held it.
Lock in the moment that matters
Rehearse the big moment — first from the outside, then from inside it — and learn to stay coherent right through it.
Face it, and stay steady
Bring an anxious memory to mind and hold your composure in front of it — from a safe distance, then up close.

Athletes, coaches and therapists — but also mums, dads, and children learning to settle and focus. Anyone with a nervous system can learn to steady it. If you have a heartbeat, you can train coherence.
Train yourself — or your clients— to…
Regulate on demand
Steady your nervous system when it matters — not only when things are already calm.
Perform under pressure
Carry competition-day composure into sport, the stage and every high-stakes moment.
Ease stress & anxiety
Meet anxious moments from a steadier place, and rehearse them safely in advance.
Sharpen focus
A calm, alert mind holds attention longer and makes clearer decisions.
Recover faster
Return to baseline more quickly after stress, effort or a setback.
Build measurable resilience
Watch time-to-coherence fall and composure rise, week on week.

Alistair is the founder of The Mind Academy and one of Australia's most experienced trainers in hypnotherapy, NLP and coaching. He first brought coherence training to a wide audience in 2004, working with anxiety clients on his Discovery Channel series — and has spent the two decades since teaching therapists, coaches, athletes and everyday people how to regulate their own state under pressure.
Heart Dynamics is the distillation of that work: real, measurable coherence training you can do yourself, with a live signal from your own heart. His mission is simple — to put genuine emotional regulation into the hands of anyone willing to practise it.
