Description

P4 Video File (55.1 MB) running time: 60 minutes – A Webinar with Dr. Rollin McCratyWhat is HRV and why is it so important?
Is the amount of heart rate variability we have important? The simple answer is yes. During this webinar Dr. Rollin McCraty explains in layman’s terms why it’s such a valuable commodity and how the amount of our HRV – the beat-to-changes in heart rhythms – is a key indicator of health and resiliency. McCraty touches upon the differences between HRV levels and “heart-rhythm coherence,” which is a desirable state of mental, emotional and physical balance and flow. He also discusses how it is measured and shares some simple tests you can conduct on your own.

Webinar topics:

• New discoveries on the physiological sources of HRV.
• HRV frequency bands and what they mean.
• Common misunderstandings about HRV.
• How your HRV reflects aging, health and resilience.
• What “HRV coherence” is and why it’s important.

Health and Medical course

More information about Medical:

Medicine is the science and practice of establishing the diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, and prevention of disease.
Medicine encompasses a variety of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness.
Contemporary medicine applies biomedical sciences, biomedical research, genetics, and medical technology to diagnose, treat, and prevent injury and disease,
typically through pharmaceuticals or surgery, but also through therapies as diverse as psychotherapy, external splints and traction, medical devices, biologics, and ionizing radiation, amongst others.

Medicine has been around for thousands of years, during most of which it was an art (an area of skill and knowledge) frequently having connections to the religious and
philosophical beliefs of local culture. For example, a medicine man would apply herbs and say prayers for healing, or an ancient philosopher and physician would apply bloodletting according to the theories of humorism.
In recent centuries, since the advent of modern science, most medicine has become a combination of art and science (bth basic and applied, under the umbrella of medical science).
While stitching technique for sutures is an art learned through practice, the knowledge of what happens at the cellular and molecular level in the tissues being stitched arises through science.
