Dr Jay T Wiles | Balance Your Nervous System & Increase Heart Rate Variability With These Simple Techniques KKP: 542

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr Jay T. Wiles. He is the co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer at Hanu Health. Dr Jay is also a prominent expert in mental health optimization, HRV, and biofeedback. Dr Jay is a clinical health and performance psychologist. He has a master's degree in clinical therapy and then went on to his doctoral degree in clinical psychology. When he was in his residency, he and his co-workers were exposed to a toxic black mold. This led him to be more interested in health, wellness, and integrative holistic health. Since then, his residency in the Department of Veteran Affairs grew his desire to study heart rate variability and biofeedback and how it relates to Nervous System Monitoring and functioning. In 2018, Dr Jay launched his consulting company, which is utilized by elite athletes, high-performance executives, and CEOs to understand data from wearables while learning how to manage their nervous systems using tools and procedures. His firm, Hanu, was founded in 2021. It is a digital mental health platform that uses wearable technology to track changes in the human stress response. They then train resilience through various techniques. In this episode, Dr Jay speaks about heart rate variability and its relation to the nervous system. Dr Jay talks about how to gauge parasympathetic balance. Tune in as we chat about Heart Rate Variability, Nervous System, Stress, Parasympathetic Balance, measuring HRV, Pre-Meal Breathwork Sessions, and many more. Get your Hanu Health device, 20% off!

[8:46] Heart Rate Variability Increasing? Don’t Worry. Nervous System is Adapting! - Heart rate and heart rate variability are not the same things. We may acquire a decent insight by evaluating both of them. - Heart rate variability is similar to examining heart rate through a microscope. - The heart does not beat to the beat of a metronome. In reality, it rapidly accelerates and decelerates. - Heart rate variability examines temporal variations or variance, which is the difference in time between each succeeding heartbeat. - Increased Heart Rate Variability indicates that the nervous system is adaptable; it can assimilate information within its surroundings and adjust. [14:17] Stress is Not Bad, Just Be Adaptable and Regulate Your Nervous System - Remember that HRV as a metric does not often behave the same way as many other metrics that serve as the normative basis of comparison. - Several conflicting elements contribute to HRV being what it is. When we compare two people's heart rate variability, it's like comparing apples and oranges. - A decrease in heart rate variability indicates that the nervous system is too busy and is having a tough time changing and adapting to its surroundings. - If we are not regulating our nervous system response, as seen by a reduction in heart rate variability, it undoubtedly aggravates any other forms of physiological abnormalities. [19:20] What Is the Best Way to Gauge the Parasympathetic Balance? - There are other methods available, but they are often more intrusive. - Another approach would be to examine general brainwave functioning and changes in brainwave states. - We have so much evidence in the scientific literature that heart rate variability is now the single best non-invasive technique to have a proxy for nervous system functioning and balance. - Many people experience nervous system assaults throughout the day, increasing over time. If they are unaware of what is going on, and especially if they are not managing their reaction at that period, we observe the emergence of a host of various mental and physical health problems. - What we can truly do is train our neurological systems to behave in a more adaptable manner, which will make us happier. [30:17] Using the Device to Measure HRV? Look At the Stress Resiliency Number - The Stress Resiliency Number is a 0 to 100 number that takes all of your data and plots it on a 0 to 100 scale. - If you don’t understand how to interpret HRV, Stress Resiliency Number is a great number to look at. - Your goal is to get yourself above that 80 to 100 thresholds, which is like our green zone. - As the HRV goes down, so does your Stress Resiliency Number.
