Background Heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback has a beneficial impact on perceived
stress and emotion regulation. However, its impact on brain function is still unclear. In this …

Heart rate variability is a robust biomarker of emotional well-being, consistent with the
shared brain networks regulating emotion regulation and heart rate. While high heart rate …

Introduction: The increasing burden on mental health has become a worldwide concern
especially due to its substantial negative social and economic impact. The implementation of …

Heart rate variability biofeedback (HRVB) has been used for a number of years to treat
depressive symptoms, a common mental health issue, which is often comorbid with other …

Objectives Heart rate variability (HRV) is a physiological marker of health with higher values
representing a more efficient autonomic nervous system (ANS), which is responsible for …

Psychological stress is a well-established risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Heart
rate variability (HRV)-biofeedback could significantly reduce stress levels and improve …

Regulation of the parasympathetic nervous system, indexed through high frequency heart
rate variability (HF-HRV), is indicative of physical and psychological health. However, little is …
