Practical tips to improve your HRV
, By Lena Gummesson, Neokliniken

Heart rate variability (HRV) is a measure of the variation in time between your heartbeats. It says a lot about how well your autonomic nervous system is functioning, i.e. the balance between stress response and recovery. In general, the higher your HRV, the better your body's stress tolerance, recovery, and resilience. That's why many people today use HRV as a biohacking tool to understand how your body is doing. Here are five simple, research-based ways to improve your HRV.

Why fat is good
, By Lena Gummesson, Neokliniken

Fat has long had an undeserved bad reputation. For decades we have been told that fat makes us sick, overweight and tired. Today we know that this is an oversimplified picture. Fat is not only energy, it is one of the body's most basic building blocks and is absolutely crucial to how we function, from the cellular level to the brain and hormonal system.

How the brain cleans out waste
, By Lena Gummesson, Neokliniken

That's why sleep matters more than you think. Did you know that the brain has its own cleansing system? A kind of built-in cleaning patrol that works while you sleep at night, when the body follows its natural circadian rhythm. Just over ten years ago, researchers described a system that really changed the way we look at brain health. It's called the glymphatic system and was discovered in 2012 by Danish brain researcher Maiken Nedergaard and her team. Since then, research has exploded around the world, precisely because this system seems to play a key role in how the brain stays healthy over time.

The Schumann resonance – the Earth’s heartbeat and its possible health effects
, By Lena Gummesson, Neokliniken

The Schumann resonance is the Earth's natural electromagnetic pulse, often referred to as the 'Earth's heartbeat'. It is generated by lightning discharges between the Earth's surface and the ionosphere and has a fundamental frequency of 7.83 Hz. This low frequency is close to our own brainwaves - and research suggests it can affect sleep, stress and the nervous system.

Healing through the body – the way out of inner blockages
, By Lena Gummesson, Neokliniken

We all carry experiences that are embedded in our bodies - sometimes as tension, sometimes as silent anxiety, sometimes as a sense of being stuck. By using body-based methods, we can begin to process what words do not always reach. That which cannot be thought free of, but which the body can let go of when given the right support. Methods such as TRE, EMDR, Somatic Experiencing and Emotional Code offer different paths back to balance - but all start from the same principle: that the body remembers, but can also heal. You don't have to relive everything. You don't need to have all the answers. But you do need to access your body's own wisdom, the rhythm of your nervous system and your ability to feel safe from within.
