Heart Tracker Practical Use Guide
In healthy human beings, normally when a stressful situation has passed, the PNS increases
in activity which decreases the activity of the SNS. It works like PNS is effectively applying
the brakes to the SNS. So the increase in PNS is essential in order to recover from stress.
When exposed to constant stress, the overall activity of the PNS decreases, which means
that you are less able to recover from stress (less resilient).
Research shows that effective resilience techniques such as exercise, constructive
thinking, yoga, massage and meditation all increase the activity of the PNS.
