Heart Rate Variability and Biofeedback with Rohan Dixit

This episode features Rohan Dixit, founder of Lief Therapeutics, who discusses heart rate variability (HRV) and its significance as a health indicator, particularly relevant for autonomic nervous system conditions like POTS. Higher HRV is often associated with better health and a balanced parasympathetic state. Dixit explains how his invention, the Lief device, uses biofeedback to help users increase HRV and manage symptoms by becoming more aware of their physiological state and learning how to consciously control it. This technology can be especially useful for those with anxiety or POTS, as it aids in identifying triggers and managing autonomic stress responses, potentially improving one's overall well-being. The conversation highlights the intersection of HRV with physical and mental health and suggests biofeedback as a practical tool for improving health outcomes, including for POTS patients.
