Heart Rate Variability Podcast

This Week In HRV Edition - Episode 14

Listen Later

In this episode, we dive deep into the latest research from late 2025 and explore the exploding field of Psychophysiology. We look at how Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is becoming the "master key" for detecting everything from complex emotions to psychosis. We also break down a massive new study on how antidepressants shift your physical metabolism, the effectiveness of "light-guided" breathing for office stress, and how VR gaming affects your autonomic nervous system.
