In today's episode, I will delve into the realm of Heart Rate Variability (HRV) – a groundbreaking tool that's becoming the gold standard for stress and recovery measurement in top-level athletes, executives and everyone in between. But how does it work and makes it such a reliable indicator? I will attempt to demystify the science behind HRV and explain how it can give insights into your body's real-time stress levels and recovery state. I will also discuss the interactions between HRV and Breathwork. I'll specifically rant about diaphragmatic breath-work which unfortunately comes with a lot of misconceptions. Whether you're a mindfulness pro, an athletic coach, or someone simply looking to better understand your body's response to stress, this episode promises a wealth of knowledge. HOMEWORK: - Practice your breathwork from a rounded position. The goal is to breathe into the back body, relaxing the shoulders and letting your spine round forward. If you find that MORE restrictive, you may need to do more work around Lat and Thoracic flexibility. Check out my flexibility programme - Check out this anatomy diagram of the amazing Diaphragm. RESEARCH: The study reviewed the potential of heart rate variability (HRV) as a reliable indicator for psychological stress. After examining 37 relevant publications from major databases, researchers found that stress typically results in changes in HRV, primarily characterized by decreased parasympathetic activity. This decrease is seen as a drop in the high-frequency band and a rise in the low-frequency band of HRV. Furthermore, brain imaging revealed a connection between HRV and specific brain regions, such as the ventromedial prefrontal cortex, which play a role in how we perceive stress. Thus, the evidence supports HRV as a valuable tool for objectively assessing psychological stress and overall well-being. Yoga and TaiChi on HRV - Open Access systematic review with MA of RCTs This study looks at the effects of breathing practices on stress and mental health, using self-report as an outcome measure for stress. The reason I chose to share it here in the notes is because it is open access and provides some other links to research on HRV that you may like. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thevertuepodcast/message

Saturday Service January 2021_4 by Rabbi Brian https://rbpodcasts.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/SaturdayService/01232021SaturdayService.mp3 Podcast: The Saturday Service January 23, 2021 Podcast Notes 00:00 - 00:40 - Welcome 00:41 - 08:11 - Dogen Quote and interpretation: “If you are unable to find the truth right where you are, where else do you expect to find it?” Kind of why this service doesn’t have a strict liturgy (not one particular path), the truth is right in front of us, just takes some adjustment of vision. Rabbi doesn’t have all the answers, just the quotes. We have all the answers for just us. If truth shackles in limits, be suspicious. 08:12 - 34:25 - Gratitude exercise and interpretation: think of something for which they are grateful. BIG then small then BIG then small, etc etc. Brené Brown: “Fitting in is about assessing the situation and becoming who you need to be to be accepted. Belonging, on the other hand, doesn’t require us to change who we are; it requires us to be who we are.” Belonging: requires us to BE who we are - can you do belonging without fitting in? Discussion about Fitting in vs. Belonging. Do we want more belonging - a basic human need - or do we settle for fitting in when we don’t belong? As long as you have your essence - your authentic self, do you have to really fit in? eg: Family or community: do we just fit in or do we belong? Do we fit in when we have to and learn to fit in temporarily? Fitting in: like in elementary school, evolves into learning how to belong after finding your own tribe. Questions are greater than answers. As long as you can stay in the question (belonging), the rules may not have to apply to fit in. The first step in love is to recognize the other or be called on. There is a lot more fitting in to find your place to belong than the other way around. Creating space in where others feel like they belong too is part of belonging. “Island of misfit toys” 34:26 - 44:59 - Exercise: In order to belong, we have to be vulnerable, to just be ourselves. What happens when you can’t do what you want to do. Eg: start with one hand 12’ in front of your nose, other one further away, try to have your hands go in opposites. Practice! Shantideva: there is nothing that does not grow lighter through having familiarity. If you want to fit in, if you want to belong, it doesn’t come easily (eg: driving), but we have to learn it. Do we want a sense of belonging so badly to accept we cannot do it automatically but to practice? If you are frustrated, don’t try to fit in and not be frustrated. Allow yourself to be frustrated, and just be.
