236.  What Is Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and How Do You Improve It?

236. What Is Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and How Do You Improve It?

Note: This episode was originally recorded and first released on June 27, 2024. We’re resurfacing it because the conversation is more relevant than ever, and the insights remain as timely today as they were when first published. Your heart doesn’t beat like a metronome, and that variability between beats reveals everything about your body’s ability to handle modern stress. I get tons of questions about HRV, and here’s what you need to understand: HRV measures the balance between your sympathetic nervous system (fight-or-flight) and parasympathetic nervous system (rest-digest), and research published in Frontiers in Neuroscience shows it’s a powerful non-invasive biomarker linked to mental and physical health.
