Researchers with the University of Waterloo seem to have found the physiological keys to wisdom! It’s something I talk about in my work but it’s always nice to have the “conventional” guys work on some of the same things about which I’m passionate.
The beat of your heart seems to be linked to how reasonable and wise you are overall. Your heart and your brain work together to consider complex issues!
Published in the Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience journal, the Waterloo team wanted to determine when and how psychophysiology determines judgment.
Professor Igor Grossman explained, “Our research shows that wise reasoning is not exclusively a function of the mind and cognitive ability. We found that people who have greater heart rate variability and who are able to think about social problems from a distanced viewpoint demonstrate a greater capacity for wise reasoning.”
What is Wisdom?
Scientists and philosophers determine wisdom as understanding the limit of your knowledge, the ability to see the diversity of life and how it evolves over time, willingness to acknowledge the point of view of other people, and recognizing ways to resolve conflicting ideas.
Fluctuation of heart rate is a normal process. Yours might fluctuate even while relaxing because it’s linked to your central nervous system and general control of organ function.
Those participants who had more variety in their heart rates had lower rates of bias when instructed to consider problems in society from a third-person perspective. Basically, putting yourself in another person’s shoes.
Grossman clarified, “We already knew that people with greater variation in their heart rate show superior performance in the brain’s executive functioning such as working memory. To channel their cognitive abilities for wiser judgment, people with greater heart rate variability first need to overcome their egocentric [focused on self] viewpoints.”
The keys of wisdom are based in happiness, clarity, and emotional wellness among other things. It’s not all about being the desired place but the journey to get there.
