Zusammenfassung
Die neurologische bzw. physiologische Verankerung der Achtsamkeit erfährt ein zunehmendes Forschungsinteresse. Immer mehr Studien weisen darauf hin, dass die Praxis der Achtsamkeit nicht nur auf psychologischer, sondern auch auf körperlicher Ebene zu einem inneren Gleichgewicht führt. Den gemeinsamen Nenner bilden ausgeprägte psychologische wie auch physiologische Selbstregulationskompetenzen, die es achtsamen Personen ermöglichen, sowohl in kognitiv-affektiver als auch in körperlicher Hinsicht adaptiv auf verschiedene Situationen zu reagieren. Das vegetative Nervensystem sowie dessen Balance und Flexibilität spielen dabei eine besondere Rolle. Das Kapitel liefert eine Einführung in die Herzratenvariabilität als exemplarischer physiologischer Marker und stellt die neuropsychokardiologischen Begleitprozesse der Achtsamkeit innerhalb des vegetativen Nervensystems sowie entsprechende Studienerkenntnisse dar.
