The heart is a brain in its own right, a complex nervous system with its own memory, perception, and decision-making powers

In this second module of Heart Wisdom, ecologist and philosopher Dr. Andreas Weber introduces the “heart brain”: a complex nervous system with its own memory, perception, and decision-making powers. Drawing from the HeartMath Institute and ancient traditions, we discover how the heart sends more signals to the brain than the brain sends back, and how this shifts everything we thought we knew about consciousness, healing, and emotion.

You’ll explore how the heart produces hormones like oxytocin and dopamine, influences your awareness, and even responds to emotional stress. This is real, embodied knowledge: your heart senses, feels, and remembers. And when you listen, it leads.

🫀 Heart Wisdom is a 6-week course with Dr. Andreas Weber, exploring the biological and spiritual intelligence of the heart. Blending neuroscience and myth, ecology and philosophy, it’s a journey into the power of tenderness, coherence, and embodied knowing.
