Heart and Brain Communication
Heat and brain communicate in 4 different ways that affect the brains activities.
Biochemically
Through hormones and neurotransmitters
Biophysically
Through pressure waves
Neurologically
Through nerve impulses
Energetically
Through electromagnetic field interactions
First researchers being : John and Beatrice Lacey
saw that the heat and brain communicate
This effects how we perceive the world
This effect how we react to the world
found that canon wasn't completely correct
found that the heart has a mind of its own
the brain follows the directions that the heart is telling it
the heart has complex logic
the heart has influence on your performance and perception to some degree.
it effects the frontocortical areas and motor cortex
can create pshychoogical factors like:
Motivation
Perceptual Sensitivity
Attention level
Emotional Processing
Heart and Brain communicate
Each organ influences/ plays and part in how each of them function
Neurocardiology
made up of complex ganglia, neurotransmitters, proteins, support cells
makes it act indepednently ( learn, remember, make decisions, and feel and sense different things
the heart sends more info to the brain then it sends to the heart
after the hearts info gets processed by the intrinsic nervous system then the sinoatrial node and tissue in the great answer it.
from the cortex
to the subcortical areas
to the medulla
the though the vagus nerves
then to the heats intrinsic nervous system
then to the extrinsic cardiac ganglia
then to the spinal cord
then back to the heart
the hreat communicates with the brain and body biochemically either tserceting hormones and neurotransmitters that go throughout the body
the hearts hormone is called ANF ( atrial natriuretic factor) AND ANP ( atrial natriuretic peptide) And atrial peptide
regulates blood vessels, kidneys, adrenal glands
increased AP = release of stress hormones
Walter Branfords Canons views:
when we are aroused (sympathetic part of our nervous system) to creates our fight or flight response
this then increase heat rate
Our parasympathetic part of our nervous system calms us down
Which then slows the heart rate
Thought that the autonomic nervous system moves hand in hand with your physiological responses in response to what you go through
introduced the concept of homeostasis
physiology is based on all cells, tissues, and organs need to maintain balance to work properly
