Summary
One of the most impactful changes I have made lately is improving my sleep, namely my sleep timing. This was inspired by tracking my sleep using an Oura Ring. If you have not tracked your sleep, I highly recommend you do. Even though I am generally not a big advocate of tracking, this is one area I feel is worthwhile. In today’s episode, I talk with the CEO of Oura Ring, Harpreet Rai about the many health benefits of sleep. Learn areas you can optimize using sleep tracker data (everyone is different). A great night of sleep is a huge health win, supporting everything from physical recovery to mental clarity. https://drruscio.com/?p=47961

| 0:46.5 | Harpreet, who is the CEO of ORA Ring, which if you don't know what ORA Ring is, it's a small ring you |
| 0:53.1 | wear on your finger and it tracks your sleep. And let me just say that this has been kind of a kick in the pants for me |
| 0:59.3 | because I thought my sleep was not too bad. And after tracking it for a while, it really pushed me |
| 1:05.7 | to make sleep even more of a priority. And I have to say the dividends that has yielded my energy, my mental |
| 1:14.7 | clarity has been maybe better than 80% of the other stuff that I've done. I mean, save |
| 1:22.2 | treating an intestinal parasite. This is probably one of the top three things that I noticed |
| 1:26.8 | a direct correlation to how I feel, which is prioritizing sleep, which tracking it really did help. And, you know, I pray, we've been wanting to have this conversation for a while now. And we finally got her schedule with a line. So thanks for being here and welcome. |
