Great talk! Here's my quick recap:
Breath in like you're smelling a flower and out like you are blowing out a candle. 4 seconds in & 6 seconds out. Start practicing 5 minutes a day and increase 5 minutes per week until you reach 20 min a day. (10 minutes 2nd week, 15 minutes 3rd week, 20 minutes 4th week).

I have read and watched a lot about HRV without understandig the simple basics she states, She explains it easy and clear. Kudos for Dr. Khazan.

Excellent talk. The content was interesting, and gave me much to think about, but the delivery especially was masterful. So much to learn from rewatching this.

[AlexRastorgouev-ls]

Inna Khazan's TEDx talk on heart rate variability (HRV) is truly eye-opening! The potential of HRV training to improve resilience and well-being is absolutely thrilling. The idea that we can enhance our mental and physical health through simple techniques like resonance frequency breathing and use apps to track our progress is incredibly empowering.

HRV breathing chills me out, centers and grounds me. I think of the word uptight, a good description of the posture taken from the mindset. On the exhale I'm trying to release that uptight vibe physically and emotionally. Trying to follow a deep slow rhythm while playing Skyrim is nice practice for life's stresses.

This was one of the best TED talks I have seen. I finally understand HRV. Thank you Dr. Khazan for being so clear and concise and confirming what I understood about RFB and its importance.

[CoachAdamRuns]

Im 43, relatively fit with regular weekly cardio exercises, my yearly health check up is great.
And im very surprised to see thst my hrv is only 43 on average, then she mentioned depression and anxiety and it all made sense

[jf]

Thank you! Learning more about HRV since my personal HRV is, on average, 16ms. Sounds scary. It might explain my lightheadedness lately.

[pattys]

Thank you Inna!! This was wonderful - I was looking for a clear and thorough explanation : ) I too had the same anxiety you did as a kid - congratulations on overcoming!!

That a once extremely shy lady can give a 20 minute on stage presentation, is amazing in itself.
I know from person experience how difficult that is ...

[grainnecatherinewalsh]

Excellent talk and quite revealing with something that up till now, I took for granted: my breathing. Thank you Inna!
