đź’« RESOURCES | EMOTIONS | ANATOMY OF FEAR

Withing seconds of perciving a threat, the primitive amygdala sounds a general alarm.

The adrenal system promptly floods the body with adrenaline and stress hormones.

Nonessential physiological processes switch off. Digestion stops, skin chills, and blood is diverted into muscles in preparation for a burst of emergency action.

Breathing quickenes, the
heart races and blood pressure skyrockets, infusing the body with oxygen while the liver releases glucose for quick fuel.

The entire body is suddenly in a state of high alert, ready for fight or flight.

HUMAN BODY | HEART IS NOT A PUMP

Ralph Marinelli* and his co-workers published a paper refuting the generally-accepted pressure-propulsion premise. For a start, they draw atten­tion to the sheer volume of work which the heart would have to do if it were solely responsible for pumping inert blood through the vessels of the circula­tory system.

Blood is five times as vis­cous as water. According to the propul­sion premise the heart would have to pump 8000 liters of blood a day in a body at rest and considerably more during ac­tivity, through millions of capillaries the diameters of which are sometimes smaller than the red blood cells them­selves – a huge task for a relatively small, muscular organ weighing only 300 grams.

TIPS & TRICKS | Reduce Anxiety & Stress with the Physiological Sigh, dr Andrew Huberman | | Huberman Lab Quantal Clip
2,45 mins

Dr. Huberman describes here "the Physiological Sigh" which is a pattern of breathing that helps reduce stress / anxiety almost instantly:

1/ two inhales throught the nose (first longer than the second one)
2/ followed by an extended exhale through the mouth

This pattern of breathing occurs spontaneously in sleep, when C02 levels get too high but they can be done deliberately any time we want to reduce our levels of anxiety and calm down fast.
