“Fyera” the word:
(Pronounced “Fee-air-ah”) a great feeling in your heart, an inner knowing and alignment that nothing can take away; the feeling you get when your arms fly up over your head and a “yes!” flies out of your mouth. The opposite of stress.
More about Fyera!'s Founder Sheva Carr
In her teens, Sheva's commitment to service brought her from her rural hometown in Nova Scotia and a career as an actress, to world travels, medical training and work with street children in a Nicaraguan war zone. Upon her return to North America, she was riddled with physical and emotional symptoms that eluded medical diagnosis. She was in and out of the hospital, on and off antidepressants, standing on her head doing yoga and eating a pristine diet of beans and bitter vegetables, and trying everything and anything else under the sun to find wellness. She struggled with overwhelming physical and emotional pain for nearly 8 years, even while she herself entered premed and alternative medical school training. Then, on a spring break from school, she volunteered at the Institute of HeartMath. As luck would have it, she was given the job of transcribing their research. As she listened and typed, her jaw kept dropping open with self recognition. All of her symptoms were explained succinctly and concretely by HeartMath's research.
It turned out that Sheva was experiencing an advanced stage of chronic post traumatic stress from living in the war zone as a teenager. Within two weeks of learning and practicing the HeartMath tools that Sheva now teaches, her symptoms disappeared. She observed equally efficient and empowering results in her patients when they applied the HeartMath tools. This inspired her to reach as many people as possible with the practical yet powerful potential of applied heart intelligence and out of that passion was born Fyera.
12 years into her post-Nicaraguan journey, she received a remarkable surprise. The street children that she had been so devastated to leave behind came and found her via the Internet. Together with these children, she formed the Fyera Foundation and the Sunflower SunPower Kids program, together helping thousands of other street children and impoverished families with the power of the heart.

- G.G.
Filmmaker and Writer, Los Angeles
"The trouble with being in the public eye as a person known for inspiring and empowering others is, where do you go when you need inspiration and advice? Sheva taught me how to access the wisdom of my own heart for that. When you've graduated from personal growth training and want to find the real power in yourself, go to Sheva. She was there through the most difficult relationship challenge of my life, guiding me to a place of self respect where I am now receiving the love I truly deserve. She is without a doubt a leader to leaders, a coach to coaches, and an inspiration to all! I am so grateful to have met you Sheva, and to continue to work with you and to watch you magic unfold in the world!"
-Bonnie St. John, Olympic Medalist, Author, Speaker Named by NBC as one of the five most inspiring women in the nation

Entrepeneur
"A mere 5 minute session learning HeartMath from Sheva utterly changed my entire outlook, energy, aura, you name it. No more burnout symptoms. I was more than astounded. For me, it was earth-shattering. Better yet, it was ignorance shattering. The process works. For several days afterwards, I sat in bliss in the O.R. just breathing through my heart. Since then, I've slacked off the practice since I've felt so good- I have not needed it as much. It worked. I'm very familiar with all the stress literature, but to actually DO it and feel it was a whole other story."
-- Dr. Tom Sinclair, Anesthesiology
“Everyone tells you the answers are within, but how the heck are you supposed to hear them? Sheva's training shows you how to heal YOURSELF, and to stop looking outside for answers or approval."
- Dora C.
Direct Sales

- Dr. Christiane Northrup
"Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom
"I have been drug and alcohol free for the 18 months I have been practicing HeartMath tools I learned from Sheva through Fyera!. HeartMath helps me to access my own internal wisdom. It taught me to regulate my physiology, by taking dominion over my feelings and thoughts. Through HeartMath, I received access to the natural pharmacy in my brain and heart, rather than having to call the dealer."
