The best way to improve HRV quickly is to focus on activating your parasympathetic system while minimizing the influence of the sympathetic system responsible for the fight-or-flight response. You can do it through sleep, breathing, exercise, rest, and proper nutrition.
HRV, or heart rate variability, describes the fluctuations in timing between successive heartbeats. While higher HRV is associated with better health, it’s not the full picture. As with many complex biological processes, what truly matters is not just the numbers, but its fractal dynamics.
Bodymind metronome that entrains fractal variability in movement, heart, breathing, and perception.
How is the framework of panarchy and ecological change related to fractal variability?
Variability is one of the main qualities that EightOS practice cultivates. Our practice promotes variability on the physical level, through movement and breathing, but also on the cognitive level, through perception, learning, and communication. But why is variability so important and how does it affect health and well-being?
In September 2022, we hosted a series of immersive events at Martin Gropius Bau in Berlin. This event was a part of Breathe, a discourse programme that unfolded in echo to the exhibition YOYI! Care, Repair, Heal and explored how different power relations impact our ability to breathe. The programme was curated by Magnus Elias Rosengarten.
Motion tracking tripod sensor that can be used to provide haptic, sonic, and visual feedback on movement and control the sound using the body.
The new sensors that can detect movement and current dynamics for multiple participants, sharing the data via Wi-Fi with the others and via the OSC protocol to produce a musical landscape.
You can experience EightOS principles using our SomaSync app: a fractal breathing and HRV entrainer or via the EightOS Manual book. It activates the core principles of EightOS: adaptability, improved resilience, confluence, and variability.
We also host regular training sessions in various locations in Europe and beyond. Please, sign up to our newsletter and WhatsApp / Telegram group below to receive an invitation:
We can also organize custom-made EightOS experiences for a specific contexts. It can be a presentation, a performance, a workshop, a participatory experience or any other event. You can see reports from our previous events or check the examples of the modules that we can provide. Send us a message to receive more information.
You can also join the custom sessions as a participant, in which case we advise you to apply for the Level 1 or Level 2 as you will then be informed about the external events.
