Episode 50: UNLOCK THE SECRET TO OPTIMAL HEALTH WITH HEART RATE VARIABILITY (HRV) with Dr. Jay T. Wiles
May 03, 2023When it comes to our health and wellness, we often focus on factors such as diet and exercise routines, as well as our mental and emotional states. However, one crucial aspect that is often overlooked is our heart rate variability (HRV). This simple yet powerful metric measures the variation in time between each heartbeat, providing valuable insights into our stress levels and overall health.
In today’s episode of the WELLPOWER Podcast, we are joined by Dr. Jay T. Wiles, the chief scientific officer of Hanu Health, about his background in clinical psychology and how his work with HRV has led to the development of a unique wearable device. This device can help individuals better manage stress and maintain optimal nervous system function. Dr. Wiles will share his expertise on the subject, and you will learn more about the fascinating world of HRV.
So, let's dive in and discover how HRV can transform the way we approach our health and wellness!
