Autonomic Tracking: Methodological Viability of an Alternative Epistemological Approach

Key Points

• The aim is to explore Indigenous tracking methods as viable approaches to understanding the autonomic nervous system's structure and function.
• Analyzed ancestral tracking techniques in relation to modern scientific understanding of the autonomic nervous system.
• Evaluated the empirical validity of these Indigenous methods for observing physiological responses.
• Examined how this tracking can contribute to the field of Autonomics.
• The application of Indigenous tracking methods offers new insights into the autonomic nervous system's dynamics.
• These methods provide an alternative epistemological framework that enhances understanding of nervous system function.
