What if your body could warn you about burnout or illness before you even feel it, possibly even days before it happens?

 

In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Torkil Færø, a Norwegian doctor and author of The Pulse Cure, to talk about heart rate variability, or HRV and how it can give us early warning signs about our health. He shared how he got into HRV tracking while on a sailing trip, and how it opened his eyes to how much stress and recovery affect our bodies.

 

We talked about what HRV really tells us, how wearables like Garmin, WHOOP, and Oura can help track it, and how small daily habits, like what you eat, how you sleep, or even when you work out, can change your HRV. Dr. Færø also told stories of real people who’ve used this data to catch serious health issues early, like cancer.

 

Key Takeaways:

 

• It’s personal, track your own trends instead of comparing numbers with others.

• HVR It’s like having your own early warning system for stress and health.

• Garmin gives more detailed stress tracking, while Oura and WHOOP are great for sleep and tagging daily habits.
