When you stand up after lying down, your body experiences a sudden change in position that can lead to a temporary drop in blood pressure. In response, the autonomic nervous system triggers an increase in heart rate and breathing rate to maintain adequate blood flow to the brain and other vital organs. This physiological response helps to prevent dizziness or fainting and ensures that oxygen delivery to tissues remains stable during the transition.
