QUESTIONS

My main question is for tips on how to manage orthostatic hypotension.
There is a lot of discussion about what to concentrate on during training with hypotension versus hypertension, but the first question is probably: Should I even treat this as a hypotension and concentrate on getting my blood pressure up or should I rather concentrate on better regulation of blood pressure, if that is even possible. For example for burnout I learned that to reduce stress the goal is not to get the heart rate down, but to increase the heart rate variability (HRV). Is there such a thing as training for blood pressure variability/flexibility?2
Next question is for tips on how to manage burnout and PAIS if and when I get both at the same time.
My burnout management involves lots of activities ranging from light intensity long walks to sprints and high intensity interval training and strength training as well as lots of meditation, breathing exercises. I try to go for a walk for at least one hour after every meal, because (at least during a sick-leave) meals cause the most and longest lasting stress if I don't walk it out. That's why I try to eat only once a day at noon - eating in the evening can ruin my sleep.
My management during an infection that feels like the start of a PAIS involves lots of sleeping without any circadian rhythm detectable and very little activity.
My management of PAIS involves pacing which I'm not good at yet though. It's really hard to know what is too much and what is too little. But I guess I can't be very wrong with just lots of slow walking without too much uphill parts.3
Now if you have any other general tips on managing any of the mentioned ailments feel free to let me know. I didn't mention everything I know already, but feel free to also mention things you assume I already know.#FollowerPower #PleaseHelp #AskFedi #question #burnout #pais #PostCovid #LongCovid #MECFS #FatigueSyndrome #fatigue #orthostasis #OrthostaticHypotension #OrthostaticDysregulation #pacing #HRV #BloodPressure #BloodPressureManagement #syncopation #BurnoutManagement #PAISManagement

I have questions to people who have knowledge about Burnout, PAIS (post-acute infection syndromes, like Post/Long-Covid, ME/CFS, etc...), orthostatic hypotension, blood pressure management, fitness, pacing, etc.
This will be a long post and you don't have to read all of it. Just look for the paragraph with the headline "questions" in the first reply.
I'm mostly writing so much to get my own thoughts in order.NOTICE
I'm asking this here in the Fediverse because this is the best place to reach actual people who know stuff. Before the ecocide slop boom I'd have started with internet research, but that's no real option anymore. If an account answers me that seems like AI it will be blocked. If you answer me with what you just found on random internet sites, you will be blocked. Everybody else: Thank you! Btw you don't have to be a formal expert on any of the subject matters. Anecdotal evidence by people affected or relatives is highly valuable too.
BACKGROUND
I'm prone to both burnout and PAIS (undiagnosed, because the health system is inadequate) but haven't yet had both of them at the same time. This might be different now. My burnout is definitely back and I'm having an infection that feels a lot like it will turn into a PAIS. I've had a PAIS two times both starting in MAy of 2024 and 2025 and lasting for 3 months each. So this would be the right time to get it again. Since the last PAIS I've had two infections though that felt like the start of PAIS, but I probably stopped them with lots of medication, supplements and other methods.
My last sick-leave was due to my first burnout for 6 weeks (obviously not long enough).
I'm on sick-leave again since Wednesday because the burnout is back - the infection broke out one day later, but probably already made my body weaker before, playing a role in the burnout-relapse.MY SYMPTOMS
For burnout my main symptoms are: tinnitus, tensions in the ear, jaw & neck area, headaches, bad sleep, fatigue, susceptibility to stress, low psychic resilience.
For the PAIS its fatigue, bad sleep, brain fog, bad performance in all systems (fitness, cognition, social, etc..), malaise, some symptoms of a cold or allergy (constant tingle in my nose, running nose, sometimes coughing and sneezing, ...) and bad memory that lasts longer than everything else (years instead of months).SPECIAL SYMPTOM: ORTHOSTATIC HYPOTENSION
I've had bad orthostatic hypotension as a child with regular syncopations. It has gotten better (rarer) and I've learned how to deal with it, at least a bit. I do still have it whenever I have an illness that makes me bedridden, like infections and depressions.
There are basically 4 levels:
1 (usually without positional change): I feel that something is wrong with my orthostasis.
2 (usually with some positional change, like from lying to sitting): I feel dizzy and weak, like my brain is not supplied with blood as it should be, but no signs of unconsciousness.
3 (usually when changing from lying to standing): I feel my conciseness fading, I get tunnel vision, my legs let up and I have to hold tight to make sure I don't fall. I get the feeling of a slight dissociation, but I'm still there enough to control it and it slowly fades away giving me a warm comfortable feeling when the blood flows back to everywhere where it's needed.
4. (sometimes combined with 3 and me not controlling it well, sometimes immediately after standing up too quick after lying for a while): I loose consciousness and fall down, sometimes banging my head badly. I haven't had this level since my teenage years and my consciousness always came back immediately when I'm on the ground.
Now I've learned that orthostatic hypotension is both a symptom and a risk factor for PAIS and since I've had it forever I think it might be a good idea to learn to manage it better as to not get PAIS again or at least less frequent.#FollowerPower #PleaseHelp #AskFedi #question #burnout #pais #PostCovid #LongCovid #MECFS #FatigueSyndrome #fatigue #orthostasis #OrthostaticHypotension #OrthostaticDysregulation #pacing #HRV #BloodPressure #BloodPressureManagement #syncopation #BurnoutManagement #PAISManagement

A four-week randomized study of 88 individual in two test groups and one control group evaluated the effects on heart rate variability (HRV) of controlled breathing at either a fixed rate of 0.1 Hz or the individual-specific resonance frequency (where blood pressure oscillations are maximized). Both treatments were equally effective at reducing stress, but neither produced changes in resting HRV.

Pro Tips: Don't chase a high HRV number. Consistency matters more than peaks. Avoid checking HRV mid-workout. Morning readings are most reliable for recovery decisions.
Expected Results: Within 2-3 weeks, you'll spot stress patterns before burnout hits, train smarter, and recover faster — backed by data, not guesswork.

-------------------------------------------------TITLE: Brooding identified as a major driver of bedtime procrastination, alongside physical markers of stress
People who stay up later than intended may have a weaker physiological capacity for self-control. A new study published in the Journal of Health Psychology links lower heart rate variability to greater bedtime procrastination.
Many individuals experience the temptation to prolong their use of digital devices, or complete further tasks, despite being aware that they should already be asleep—a behavior known as bedtime procrastination. Scientists have previously connected bedtime procrastination to difficulties with managing behavior and emotions. Individuals who struggle to prioritize long-term wellbeing over short-term enjoyment, or who have trouble regulating negative feelings, are thought to be more prone to pushing their bedtime later.
What has been less well understood is whether this tendency also has a measurable biological marker. A promising candidate is heart rate variability (HRV), defined as the natural variation in the time between heartbeats. Previous research has demonstrated that a higher level of this variability—particularly the component driven by the body’s calming “rest and digest” nervous system (the vagus nerve)—is associated with adaptability to stress and a greater capacity for self-control.
Hence, the researchers in the present study sought to examine whether this physiological marker, alongside self-reported difficulties with managing behavior and emotions, could predict how much someone tends to procrastinate at bedtime.
Lena Mareen Grabo and Silja Bellingrath of the University of Duisburg-Essen in Germany recruited 135 adults aged between 18 and 82 (with an average age of around 29; approximately 65% female). Participants first sat quietly for ten minutes while their heart rate was continuously measured using an accurate chest strap device. From this recording, the researchers calculated each person’s baseline level of heart rate variability.
Participants also filled out questionnaires reporting on how often they procrastinate at bedtime, how well they manage their own behavior and emotions, and how often they engage in specific thinking styles. These thinking styles included a tendency to “brood” (getting stuck in passive, repetitive, negative thought loops) versus “reflect” (purposefully thinking through problems to solve them).
The results pointed to a clear picture in which bedtime procrastination reflects challenges across multiple different aspects of self-control simultaneously. Individuals scoring higher on bedtime procrastination tended to have lower heart rate variability, greater difficulty regulating their behavior, and greater difficulty managing their emotions. Importantly, each of these three factors contributed independently to the prediction of bedtime procrastination.
When analyzing the specific ways people deal with emotions, a nuanced picture emerged. While using “cognitive reappraisal” (a deliberate strategy of reframing stressful situations in a more positive light) initially appeared to reduce bedtime procrastination, it lost its predictive power when other emotional habits were factored in. Ultimately, only “brooding” significantly predicted procrastinating at bedtime in the final model. Conversely, engaging in more reflective, problem-focused thinking did not show any link to delaying sleep.
The study also found that bedtime procrastination was moderately associated with both shorter sleep duration and worse sleep quality, reinforcing just how consequential this habit can be for nightly rest.
Interestingly, the study found no significant connection between a person’s biological heart rate variability and their self-reported measures of behavioral and emotional regulation. This suggests the different components of the self-control system operate somewhat independently, even though they all contribute to the same behavioral outcome.
“Taken together, the findings highlight bedtime procrastination as a problem of diminished self-regulatory capacity reflected in both physiological (lower heart rate variability) and psychological (poorer behavioral and emotion regulation) domains, yet they also suggest that self-regulation is not a unitary construct,” Grabo and Bellingrath concluded.
Some limitations should be noted. For example, the study was conducted at one point in time, and the researchers caution that it cannot reveal strict causality. It is possible that low self-control causes bedtime procrastination, which causes poor sleep, which in turn further depletes self-control the next day in a bidirectional loop.
The study, “Bedtime procrastination as a typical problem of self-regulation? Insights from the examination of heart rate variability, behavioral regulation and emotion regulation,” was authored by Lena Mareen Grabo and Silja Bellingrath.

Previous research has demonstrated that a higher level of this variability—particularly the component driven by the body’s calming “rest and digest” nervous system (the vagus nerve)—is associated with adaptability to stress and a greater capacity for self-control.
Hence, the researchers in the present study sought to examine whether this physiological marker, alongside self-reported difficulties with managing behavior and emotions, could predict how much someone tends to procrastinate at bedtime.
Lena Mareen Grabo and Silja Bellingrath of the University of Duisburg-Essen in Germany recruited 135 adults aged between 18 and 82 (with an average age of around 29; approximately 65% female). Participants first sat quietly for ten minutes while their heart rate was continuously measured using an accurate chest strap device. From this recording, the researchers calculated each person’s baseline level of heart rate variability.
Participants also filled out questionnaires reporting on how often they procrastinate at bedtime, how well they manage their own behavior and emotions, and how often they engage in specific thinking styles. These thinking styles included a tendency to “brood” (getting stuck in passive, repetitive, negative thought loops) versus “reflect” (purposefully thinking through problems to solve them).
The results pointed to a clear picture in which bedtime procrastination reflects challenges across multiple different aspects of self-control simultaneously. Individuals scoring higher on bedtime procrastination tended to have lower heart rate variability, greater difficulty regulating their behavior, and greater difficulty managing their emotions. Importantly, each of these three factors contributed independently to the prediction of bedtime procrastination.
When analyzing the specific ways people deal with emotions, a nuanced picture emerged. While using “cognitive reappraisal” (a deliberate strategy of reframing stressful situations in a more positive light) initially appeared to reduce bedtime procrastination, it lost its predictive power when other emotional habits were factored in. Ultimately, only “brooding” significantly predicted procrastinating at bedtime in the final model. Conversely, engaging in more reflective, problem-focused thinking did not show any link to delaying sleep.
The study also found that bedtime procrastination was moderately associated with both shorter sleep duration and worse sleep quality, reinforcing just how consequential this habit can be for nightly rest.
Interestingly, the study found no significant connection between a person’s biological heart rate variability and their self-reported measures of behavioral and emotional regulation. This suggests the different components of the self-control system operate somewhat independently, even though they all contribute to the same behavioral outcome.
“Taken together, the findings highlight bedtime procrastination as a problem of diminished self-regulatory capacity reflected in both physiological (lower heart rate variability) and psychological (poorer behavioral and emotion regulation) domains, yet they also suggest that self-regulation is not a unitary construct,” Grabo and Bellingrath concluded.
Some limitations should be noted. For example, the study was conducted at one point in time, and the researchers caution that it cannot reveal strict causality. It is possible that low self-control causes bedtime procrastination, which causes poor sleep, which in turn further depletes self-control the next day in a bidirectional loop.
The study, “Bedtime procrastination as a typical problem of self-regulation? Insights from the examination of heart rate variability, behavioral regulation and emotion regulation,” was authored by Lena Mareen Grabo and Silja Bellingrath.

-------------------------------------------------TITLE: Brooding identified as a major driver of bedtime procrastination, alongside physical markers of stress
People who stay up later than intended may have a weaker physiological capacity for self-control. A new study published in the Journal of Health Psychology links lower heart rate variability to greater bedtime procrastination.
Many individuals experience the temptation to prolong their use of digital devices, or complete further tasks, despite being aware that they should already be asleep—a behavior known as bedtime procrastination. Scientists have previously connected bedtime procrastination to difficulties with managing behavior and emotions. Individuals who struggle to prioritize long-term wellbeing over short-term enjoyment, or who have trouble regulating negative feelings, are thought to be more prone to pushing their bedtime later.

Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) — Operating Principle
A recuperator (heat recovery unit) transfers heat from exhaust air to incoming fresh air without mixing the two streams.
---
How It Works
Two airflows:
Exhaust air (warm, from indoors)
Supply air (cold, from outside)
They pass through a heat exchanger:
separated by plates or channels
no direct mixing
heat transfers through the material (conduction)
Result: → supply air is preheated
→ exhaust air is cooled
→ overall heat loss is reduced---
Types of Recuperators
1. Plate Heat Exchanger
aluminum or plastic plates
efficiency: ~60–90%
no moving parts
2. Rotary (Wheel) Heat Exchanger
rotating drum
transfers heat and some moisture
efficiency: up to ~85–90%
3. Counterflow Heat Exchanger
air streams move in opposite directions
highest efficiency: up to ~95%
---
What Is Transferred
heat (primary)
sometimes moisture (in enthalpy units)
---
Efficiency Example
outside: 0°C
indoor: +22°C
after recovery: ~16–20°C
---
Advantages
reduced heating energy demand
continuous ventilation without major heat loss
improved indoor air quality
---
Limitations
frost formation in winter (needs bypass or preheater)
filter maintenance required
upfront cost
---
Core Idea
A recuperator doesn’t generate heat — it recovers and reuses it.

Having a Cold with Garmin and Apple
Reading Time: < 1 minuteYesterday I woke up feeling tired and both Garmin and Apple said that I neded to rest. What I thought were allergies turned out to be a one day cold, I hope. According to the Apple Watch my HRV crashed down and in the evening I definitely had a cold/flu dream.
My dream, paradoxically, was sorting through a list of photos via checksum or some other technology. What I spent my waking hours doing made it into my dreams.
You can tell how under the weather I was, firstly by being too tired to go for the group ride, and not caring, and by the fact that I thought the First Saturday was yesterday when yesterday was the last saturday of the month. It shows that I wasn't in my plate, to use a French expression.
My sleeping heart rate sometimes drops to 38 or lower. Yesterday it was at 56 BPM. According to Suunto it was 61BPM and according to Garmin it was just 45 BPM. Which one should I trust? I'd say Garmin.
If we ignore the details and look at the trends then Suunto, Apple and Garmin saw that I was fighting something and told me that I should rest. I was sick enough to confuse next Saturday with yesterday. Luckily I didn't get to Geneva. That would have been a mistake.
If I felt good, then today I could have enjoyed a via ferrata. As I did not I stayed home. I want to rest today ahead of tomorrow's run. If I wake and devices tell me to rest I suspect I will.
And Finally
And finally, today I am toying with the idea of a real rest day. I will still walk, but a short half hour circuit.

#OpenScience #OpenTeaching community,
yesterday, for the beginning of the exam season, I gave a lecture on stress management. To demo Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia, I built a little tool to show real-time ECG + heart rate from a Polar H10 in the lecture hall.Students could see how breathing affects heart rate. The "aha!" moments were amazing : )
It now records and is available as FOSS:

I have an interesting problem. Our apartment lacks adequate ventilation and our co2 levels are always very high. I have a monitors in multiple rooms and at night with the door closed our bedroom is around 1600-2000+ppm. The recommended levels are under 1000ppm. For adults its not great, but my wife and I are expecting our first in March. Prolonged co2 levels above 1500ppm increased risk potential cognitive effects and 2000ppm is very unhealthy for infants. There aren't any laws or regulations around residential indoor air quality, so the apartment complex doesn't have to remedy the situation.
