ABSTRACT Objectives The study of neural and visceral oscillatory activities reveals that both subsystems and their interactions influence human cognition. In particular, cardiac and neural changes during self-regulation processes can be studied through a comparison of stress-inducing procedures and meditation practices. Methods In this study, we investigate the characteristic profiles of...
ABSTRACT Background Breath-focused meditation is recognized for its potential to enhance autonomic regulation and attentional control. However, most research focuses on the study of isolated physiological domains, limiting the understanding of how neural and cardiorespiratory systems interact dynamically to support self-regulatory processes. Methods EEG, ECG, and respiratory activity were...
