Heart Palpitations

What are Heart Palpitations?

Heart palpitations are the sensation of your heart beating too fast, too hard, irregularly, or skipping beats. They can feel alarming — particularly when they occur at rest or without obvious cause. While palpitations are common during anxiety or exertion, chronic or frequent palpitations warrant investigation and often reflect autonomic nervous system dysfunction.

How to know if Heart Palpitations are chronic

• Occurring multiple times per week, at rest, or during minimal activity
• Lasting more than a few weeks
• Accompanied by dizziness, chest discomfort, or breathlessness
• Disrupting sleep or daily activities

Heart Palpitationscan be associated with the following conditions:

• • Dysautonomia
  • Fibromyalgia
  • General Anxiety Disorder
  • Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS)
  • POTS: Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome
  • Long-COVID

How brain training & re-origin can help

Heart palpitations linked to POTS, dysautonomia, or anxiety often reflect an autonomic nervous system that has lost flexibility. Re-origin’s program directly targets nervous system regulation — helping restore the balance between the sympathetic (activating) and parasympathetic (calming) branches of the autonomic system, which can meaningfully reduce palpitation frequency.
