I just swore out loud. I've got ME. After exercise my HRV will fall through the floor and my HR can get tachycardic until I recover. I just gargled twice and my HRV doubled. Tried it again and it did the same thing. Cue shock. I'm going to keep doing it for a bit to see if I can get it to level out at a new level. Happy new sub here! Thank you v much!!
Hey, how have you been with gargling? I also have ME due to covid and have been looking into vagus nerve work so I’m curious how it had worked out for you
@@kirstenp3875 I haven't done it much in truth. I suspect that gargling also works because it improves carbon dioxide tolerance. I've been using altitude training more of late.
Much appreciated! You can see other before and after HRV videos in this playlist, and I will definitely be adding more techniques in the future. Hope you enjoy: Improve your Heart Rate Variability HRV and Health with these experiments and advice: ru-vid.com/group/PLwvCrQ5q7HJKjvuno0sBLXGo9jaOkiqTR
Does gargling affect your HRV only while gargling or does it affect your overall HRV marker if you gargle daily? Also, what device are you using to measure your HRV? Thanks for the video.
The theory is that the more vagal toning exercises you do the higher your vagal tone will be and higher long term HRV. I use the Lief device to measure HRV, check it out here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-x5ZIZZvZe8g.html Cheers!
I think the bee breath is good as well. I just find gargling easier on my vocal chords and provides similar benefits, so it's a matter of preference. Glad you are enjoying my videos 😀
funny. and nice tip. note that once you master the process by gargling, there are other ways to achieve it... purring like tigers = flapping the deep throat while exhaling (please read precisely! :) , massage the throat with the bottom of the tongue, and generally have the tongue with some tone at the roof of the mouth cavity. and of course prayanama practices and box breathing
@@HRVHackers someone told me how she suppresses sneezing : that the trick with pressing the tongue to the soft roof. But to be honest... mainly from cats (small and big... I am trained as biologist), at the one hand, and, on the other hand, in the context of orgasm 😁
2 questions. On your pulseeto review are the HF figures you quote are they available on pulseto . What do you use to measure your hrv . Btw the parasympathetic frequency is 109 mhz , 9.17 milliseconds. I have a friend who has mapped all healthy frequencies in The body . It took her 6 years .
@@HRVHackers bummer says out of stock . Shame cause it’s the most cost effective of the devices . The oura ring is over $300 . bucks and the whoop is a membership charge nearly $30 bucks a month 😩 I have the HRV4Training app but it uses Ppg and which is a pain holding your finger on the camera and you only get the day to day trending data not overnight etc . You never answered my question re the HF data .
@@HRVHackers yes I’ve noticed my HRV go up a day after HIIT. I’ve been doing HIIT every second day to get enough recovery and it’s working well. Before HIIT my HRV was really low. Now it’s increasing steadily.
That's great to hear. I've been doing mostly zone 2 and zone 3 training as I'm still recovering from long hauling. Will try a little HIIT as well to see how it goes! It looks like you recover very quickly, most people need a few days after a workout
Would love to see a comparison of gargling with the effects of breath holding only without gargling. I’m sure the act of gargling requires palatial muscle contractions necessitates glossopharyngeal and vagal activity. How about combining gargling with Resonant Frequency Breathing? Thanks for content super interesting !
I appreciate the kind feedback! Gargling with resonant breathing provides the highest HRV for me, as long as I gargle on the exhale. I actually use a paced breather most of the day to keep my breathing at 5 bpm. How about you?
@@HRVHackers I’m about 4 years into RFB and have tested so many marriages of RFB with vagal recruiting techniques like vocalisation, head rotation and facial expression following Porges findings. I’d never tried gargling before. In my work as a Yoga Therapist it became necessary to produce the music to fit the resonant spectrum. If you would like to try my music it’s on RU-vid I can drop a link with your permission 🙏🏻✨
That's really cool that you've been combining RFB with other techniques. I'd love to see some of the details if you have a blog post or demo video. If I can reproduce the HRV increasing effects with the Lief device I will definitely give you credit. And sure you can post the music link 😃
@@HRVHackers Nice one ☝️ 😊 the music I produced under the artist name Soundmoves. It’s composed with Isochronic Theta waves for trance induction. This track is 5 breathes per minute or 6 seconds per inhale/exhale. When I record my brain waves during resonant frequency breathing I’m getting great results!
