    I am somewhat confused by Heart Rate Variation HRV. On your description you say “the higher the better” however I would think that a high HRV suggests that an irregular heart beat thus meaning arrythmia. I have found exactly this with some surprising results, a high HRV leading to a modest arrythmia and a low one leading to a modest sinus rythym. Here is an example, this morning I decided to wear my monitor whilst getting up to see what my heart was telling me whilst washing, dressing, breakfasting, and toileting. I got a surprisingly low HRV of 45 through all of this activity which was unusual and the percentages were sinus 98.3, arrythmias 1.7. Great I thought, however on going for a meditation straight after involving 20 minutes of binaural beats, my HRV was 98. Oh no I thought this is going to be terrible. However the ECG result was exactly the same as before. Can anyone explain please?
