Inner Balance vs emWave2 vs emWave Desktop by HeartMath

As a licensed HeartMath personal coach, I have the emWave2®, emWave Desktop®, and
Inner Balance™ stress monitors. All 3 HeartMath products are used to measure patterns in
your real time heart rate which indicate your emotional state. Which is the best product for
you and what are the costs? Read on to compare them all!

The Inner Balance sensor is the best solution for a single user if you already have a smart
device that runs Apple’s iOS. A small processor attaches to your device and the processor has
thin cable to an ear lobe pulse sensor. The processor just fits into the 30-pin connector of
your device. However if you have an iPhone5 you need to buy the 30-pin to lightning adaptor
which costs $20 (Amazon)-$40 (Radio Shack). If used by multiple people, then you need to
make notes in the journal who used the sensor for that session. The Inner Balance app stores
your session history on your smart device then the data file can be saved on your computer
when you connect to iTunes. HeartMath is working on an iCloud storage connection to come
out soon. Also HeartMath plans to come out with an Android app version of Inner Balance
next year.

If you have an Android device yet cannot wait until next year and are a single user then the
emWave2 which is portable is a good choice. However the emWave2 has less diagnostics
than Inner Balance. Unlike the Inner Balance, the emWave2 connects to your computer to
run there in real time or to just download your session history when you were away from
your computer. If used by multiple people, then you need to record in the notes who used
the sensor for each session. The emWave2 is the size of a cell phone.

If monitoring is for a family, school, health professional, or a business and compact portability
is not required then emWave Desktop is the best choice. The emWave Desktop has all the
diagnostics as Inner Balance and is setup for multiple users with the data stored in separate
folders by user name. As a HeartMath coach I find that the pulse pressure history is critical to
diagnosing an erratic heart rate variability plot to determine a faulty sensor connection or
blood circulation problem in the ear lobe. Also the emWave Desktop has the most games to
encourage you to stay coherent. The Inner Balance has no games and the emWave2 has few
games. I personally don’t use the games – but kids and teens like them. I do having my own
images and music which can be integrated into all three devices.

A comparison of the 3 HeartMath devices is shown in this table.


There is also a free app called ‘GPS for the Soul’ for iOS 5 and greater. The device uses the
camera flash and senses the pulse moving through your finger while it covers the flash!
Fascinating but not worth the effort as the finger pulse sensor is unreliable unlike the ear
sensors on the other devices.

All 4 devices tell you when you are in the 'green', i.e. coherence, which is the state of optimal
thinking and health as determined by the unique pattern made by the time history of the
real-time heart rate which happens when you are in a positive emotional state. Learn more
