In this episode of Health Hacktivators, Dr. Alka Patel speaks about the importance of positivity for our health and well-being.
She explains that positivity is not about being happy all the time or denying negative emotions, but rather cultivating an optimistic outlook and positive emotional disposition. Dr. Patel discusses the biological mechanisms involved in positivity, including key chemicals such as dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, and endorphins, and the role of the brain in regulating our emotions. She also explains how heart rate variability (HRV) can be used to measure stress and positivity, and how mindfulness apps, meditation, and biofeedback devices can be helpful tools for increasing positivity and improving HRV. Dr. Patel concludes by offering three health-activating hacks for improving positivity, including practising gratitude, engaging in regular physical activity, and cultivating positive relationships with others.
In this episode you’ll hear about:
- What does positivity involve, and which brain chemicals regulate it
- How positivity is linked to physical and mental health
- Some common misconceptions about positivity
- How heart rate variability can be used to measure stress and positivity, and what impact it has on health
