Morning people, hope you are all well.

I have banged on about the ANS (vagal AF references) and anxiety forever but found it really hard to understand exactly the mechanism and in preparation for my talk I have been searching for a simplistic way to describe exactly what happens and came across this video - which I hope will also explain to you guys exactly what happens mechanically so to speak. Also fits with Dr Gupta's videos on anxiety, fear and ectopics.

It is quite long and quite detailed but very helpful and clear explanation presented by a neurologist,

Wow CDreamer , quite something. That will need a few viewings from me, but really informative. I think my physiology awareness is somewhat dated! Intense but worth it. Many thanks , and best of wishes with your presentation.
