Psycho - mental stress induces

incoherent Hearth Rate Variability

 The heart is commanded by the brain through the help of the central nervous system.  

The heart beat of a healthy man is changed through two sets of commands, received simultaneously by the parasympathetic system (which involves quick changes of the beat) and sympathetic system (which involves slow changes in the heart beat). Because of these two variables, the heart beat rate varies along a sinusoidal function which is centered to a median value (the number of heart beat / min).

These variations of the heart beat are affected by the thoughts, emotions and physical activities. Also important changes in our heart beats variability will affect our capacity of taking decisions, problem solving and creativity along with ways in which we perceive the events that take place around us.  

This is why the measure of the Heart Rate Variations is an effective, objective and non-intruding instrument to measure interactions that take place between the physiological, emotional, mental and behavior  processes.  

During the psycho mental stress (characterized by feelings of fear, anger, frustration and depression) we can observe an increase of activity in the sympathetic nervous system, and a decrease of activity of the parasympathetic nervous system. This leads to an increase risk of fibrillation, increase stress of the heart and affects the hormonal and immunological systems. All of these take place along with a slow and disordered change in the heart beat rate.  

During a well-being state of mind (caused by sincere appreciation, and love), the parasympathetic nervous system's activity increases leading a strong and ordered increase in heart beat rate. The effects are positive to the cardiovascular, immunologic and hormonal system.  

The electric field produced by the heart is 60 times stronger than the one of the brain, and the electromagnetic field of the heart is 5000 stronger than the one generated by the brain. This is why the quality of the variation of the heart beat also influences people which are in our proximity (under 1.5 m distance).  

If the mental - emotional processes are affected then the inter-personal communication skill are affected too. This leads to create the conditions for the installation and spread of the emotional virus.  

The causes of the apparition and psychological methods of preventing and eliminating the emotional virus are presented in the <<Incoherent Heart Rate Variability leads to the "emotional virus" >>Page  

<<Emotional virus and TRT® page >> presents how stress management using TRT® courses can prevent and eliminate the emotional virus by learning simple and effective instruments and methods.
