Seven EEG recordings over thirteen months revealed highly stereotyped transitions between distinct brain dynamics in an advanced meditator, providing a rare experimental window onto large-scale brain-state dynamics. We report an intensive longitudinal EEG case study of an experienced Tibetan tantric practitioner recorded across seven different measurement sessions, including concentrative and...
Chemosignals found in human body odors (BOs) convey information about a person's emotional state and elicit observable responses in others. While mindfulness typically enhances parasympathetic tone and reduces anxiety, little is known about how BOs modulate these effects. This study investigated how emotional and non-emotional human BOs influence autonomic nervous system activity - heart rate...
This study reports on a multivariate complexity assessment for cardiovascular dynamics during REM sleep leading to a dream recall. Heart rate variability, as well as systolic and diastolic time interval variability series were gathered from eight volunteers during night sleep, and were considered input of a trivariate Multichannel Complexity Index (MCI) analysis. MCI is a recently proposed...
