And on a daily basis, when something stresses out, we have to ask ourselves, is it worth my hippocampus?
Yes.
HRV is a little tricky in that there is day-to-day variability and hour-to-hour variability.
So if you measure your HRV in the morning, when you wake up, it will be different than it is in the afternoon.
So what you need to do is to measure your HRV at the same time every day for a week.
Yes, many smart watches or ring these days just calculate your HRV and you can see it on your watch.
And so you want to measure it exact same time every day for a week to get a feel for where it is.
Is it 34, 32 or is it 42, 45, 46?
And then there's no like optimal level because every person is different.
You want to know your baseline
and then monitor it over time, more like a weekly basis, not like from day one to day two.
So you should look at a broader view, not on an hourly basis or daily basis, more like a weekly basis, how I'm doing with HRV.
Sure.
Yes, that's the first chapter of my book.
I talked to you about cortex and hippocampus.
Cortex is important for our higher cognitive functions.
Anything we do that requires thinking, problem solving, reading, writing, typing, doing our taxes, preparing for a podcast, writing a book, everything we do requires thinking.
Primarily, the cognitive functions require cortex and hippocampus.
Unfortunately, over the past century or so, people have decided that intelligence is being good at logic, problem solving, and processing speed.
And somehow this is the IQ test that determines how intelligent you are.
