Mother's Day - A miracle that is rarely seen and appreciated There are words that are too small for what they are supposed to describe. "Mother" is one of them. Not because it's a bad word - but because what lies behind it doesn't fully fit into any language in the world.

The heart rate variability measurement shows us how well our autonomic nervous system is set up. Roughly speaking, our autonomic nervous system consists of two parts - the sympathetic nervous system (tension) and the parasympathetic nervous system (relaxation). The autonomic nervous system can be seen as a higher-level control center that uses nerves to control and regulate processes and functions in the body - more precisely: our organs and organ systems - and at best keeps them in a certain balance.
The autonomic nervous system is one of the two systems that the body uses for communication between organs. The second system - the hormonal system (endocrine system), communicates, as the name suggests, via hormones, while the autonomic nervous system communicates via nerves. It is also referred to as the autonomic nervous system because it acts and reacts involuntarily, i.e. it is not subject to our will, but acts independently, quasi unconsciously for us and can hardly be consciously influenced by us.
