This episode is brought to you by Aura O-U-R-A. It is the only wearable that I wear on a daily basis. Aura is the company behind the smart ring that delivers personalized sleep and health insights to help you optimize just about everything. And I've tried every device out there that you can imagine. This one really makes the cut. I've been using it religiously for at least six months now, and I was introduced to it by Dr. Peter Atia, who's also vetted just about everything. With advanced sensors, Oropak's state of the art heart rate, heart rate variability, HRV, super important to me. temperature activity and sleep monitoring technology into a convenient noninvasive ring. It's tiny. It weighs than six grams and focuses on three key insights sleep, readiness, and activity. So I can use it to help focus my attention on the type, volume, intensity of

exercise that I should do in a given day. I use it to determine how certain types of alcohol at different times of the day affect my sleep, which they do, and I can see all of that in graph form trended over time. There are tons of actionable insights that have come from using this ring. For me, they have a number of incredible people on their team.

The aura ring is one of the most accurate wearables available because it measures your vitals directly from your finger. So it's not deducing that or uh making a best guesstimate based on a bunch of other things and trying to triangulate. Compared to a medical grade electrocardiogram, the aura ring is ninety nine point nine percent accurate for resting heart rate and ninety eight point four percent accurate for heart rate variability. And I work with HR V doctors and they recommend that I use the aura ring. So try it yourself. It is super cool and super practical, very actionable.
