Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is the change in time between successive heart beats, and these small variations occur in response to internal and external events.
These fluctuations are directly linked to our autonomic nervous system which helps to control our bodies unconscious processes. By tracking these variations, we can better understand our nervous systems, cardiovascular systems, and respiratory systems, and how our bodies are able to respond to many of life’s stressors that have a massive impact on our wellness.
By tracking these unique variations over time, we can better understand the signals we receive from our body. In just 30-60 days using HRV, this can lead an increase in our ability to recognize and better manage life’s stressors.
If we want to use this HRV data to truly improve our physical and emotional intelligence, we get to ask ourselves an important question:
How can a prime biomarker like HRV practically improve how we manage our emotions, stress, burnout, and decrease our risk for many of today's common ailments?
On this episode of Wellness Force Radio, we explore this topic and much more with Jason Moore, CEO of Elite HRV. During this interview, Jason discusses the importance of monitoring our HRV, and his non-evasive tracking tool that will help us gain insight into this important biomarker and how we can use it to fuel our health journey.

Top 3 Takeaways From Jason Moore
- We can sometimes spend years trying to develop our wellness intuition. We can speed up this process if we learn the proper ways to track and analyze our biological data through different forms of wellness tech.
- Extreme exercise might make us "better" at certain activities, but this may be at the expense of other parts of our wellness. Technology can help us know when to slow down so we don't jeopardize important areas of our health.
- HRV can give us incredible insight into other areas of our wellness and how our body functions. We don't need massive amounts of tracking with HRV, 5 minutes a day for a couple weeks can give us great insight into how we can adjust our lifestyle to improve our wellness.
