Heart Rate Variability Science | Lane Michel | Talks at Google 

22:40 - to get past the hardcore woo woo (fill in the blank)

Very helpful information! HeartMath has been at the forefront of research on heart/brain/emotions coherence for many years now. It's great to see these discussions finally becoming more accessible to the public.

Thank you to the audience member who asked the questions at 54mins. It's a shame that there's a muddling of solid science with metaphysical mysticism in this presentation (and the HeartMath Institute more broadly).

Great information. Autonomic - pronunciation was incorrect as autotomic

The key is coherent breathing, which turn creates coherence in one emotional state or states!

Excellent talk with useful information.

I’m not sure about the receiving end on the heart field however polyvagal theory is pointing to cues in the environment that can have nervous systems coregulate each other. I think there’s a strong intersection between the work you’re doing and poly vagal theory

Fascinating! Thank you.

this is so interesting information!

incredibly you can do all of this on your apple watch or cheap ecg watch

Without references, I have to research elsewhere.

im at 19 min. does he get to a point? eventually?

Amazing!!!!!

Some great ideas and points but no solid proof for most of the claims... would love all of that to be accurate but again no solid proof provided besides “go look at our research”..

Synchronized heart fields, really?!! I'd like to see some peer-reveiwed science on that. Sounds like woo.

A heart field that extends 3 feet? If it's anything like any other magnetic/electric field it extends to infinity but it gets exponentially weaker with distance. Why on earth would it be perfectly 3 feet? And if it can be measured, why don't we see the measurements but instead some artist's rendition? Also, your heart is hidden pretty deep behind fat, bone, muscle and skin, all acting as a faraday cage, so I highly doubt that you can measure it. Downvoted, this is pseudo-scientific nonsense.

some woo in the beginning that completely ignores social psychology; also, $120 to $200 is not "totally affordable." Decent on HRV info, but better info exists out there.

"Intelligent use of emotion is key to improving physiology and health in every aspect of life": This absolutely false, Emotions only play a small role in improving one physiology. The KEY is coherent breathing and you know this !! Stop lying to your audience!!!

In this comment: A summary until min 35:00 (1), a better talk on this same subject (2), a joke discrediting the speaker (3). 1: IMHO Takeaway until min 35:00 : the heart has 40k neurons, communicates with the brain, and produces and electromagnetic field which can be measured to detect 75% of your emotions. It influences our autonomic nervous system. 2: an shorter, more dense, more detailed, funnier, talk is this one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-q06YIWCR2Js.html beware this is only the first part, the second is just as amazing. Furthermore: if his talk taught me X new information, his 300+ pages book taught me further X information. 3: 21:20 ... "with a greater accuracy" compared to what?! If the heart can predict the output of computer programs then we solved the halting problem! Amazing! (sarcasm)

Mumbo jumbo
