Long-Term Study of Heart Rate Variability Responses to Solar and Geomagnetic activity

Long-Term Study of Heart Rate Variability Responses to Changes in the Solar and Geomagnetic Environment

Abstract
This long-term study examined relationships between solar and magnetic factors and the time course and lags of autonomic nervous system (ANS) responses to changes in solar and geomagnetic activity. Heart rate variability (HRV) was recorded for 72 consecutive hours each week over a five-month period in 16 participants in order to examine ANS responses during normal background environmental periods. HRV measures were correlated with solar and geomagnetic variables using multivariate linear regression analysis with Bonferroni corrections for multiple comparisons after removing circadian influences from both datasets. Overall, the study confirms that daily ANS activity responds to changes in geomagnetic and solar activity during periods of normal undisturbed activity and it is initiated at different times after the changes in the various environmental factors and persist over varying time periods. Increase in solar wind intensity was correlated with increases in heart rate, which we interpret as a biological stress response. Increase in cosmic rays, solar radio flux, and Schumann resonance power was all associated with increased HRV and parasympathetic activity. The findings support the hypothesis that energetic environmental phenomena affect psychophysical processes that can affect people in different ways depending on their sensitivity, health status and capacity for self-regulation.

I'm not very up on this kind of science but would there be any connection to ions.  I feel agitated shortly before storms.  I think that is quite common and I think it is to do with an increase in positive ions.  Sorry if it not related.

The sort of activity they are talking about here has a source that is known to be external to the earth, and not a thunderstorm.

That said, I've little doubt that large changes in the charge of molecules etc in your environment probably affect ones behavior/physiology in some way, but I've not looked into it in any detail.

I think the Schumann resonance power, mentioned in that article, would be associated with thunderstorms, though presumably on a global scale rather than a local one:

..."The findings support the hypothesis that energetic environmental phenomena affect psychophysical processes that can affect people in different ways depending on their sensitivity, health status and capacity for self-regulation...

...and belief systems (which is reflected by the physical reality that you create).

Beliefs are always the beginning point followed by a response (emotion) and an action (be that action physical, emotional or psychophysical wth that means. lol

If the participants believed - unconsciously, subconsciously or consciously - that the energy could affect them, then we see the physical results of the physical reality so created above. If they did not, they could not be affected.
