The general take
Oura Ring gets mixed reactions: Sean Kelly finds it useful for tracking stress (though the data shows he's dealing with significant daily stress), while Billie Eilish is genuinely enthusiastic about how it's made her prioritize sleep better. Chris Motley sees potential in the ring's ability to measure deep and restorative sleep, with applications for tracking health frequencies going forward.

…wearable technology for tracking sleep patterns and health data
“I think that when you can find out like with Oura Ring, how much you are actually going into deep sleep, how much you're going to restorative sleep, I think that they're going to be able to take those devices and be able to track frequencies in association with your sleep.”

…discussing sleep tracking devices and prioritizing lifestyle measures
“So whether it's humming, singing, putting legs up a wall, breath work, reading a physical book, those are all things before we ever talk about gadgets. Because inevitably what people do is they're not sleeping. They're like, oh, I need the Oura Ring. And I don't mean to pick on Oura Ring. I love my Oura Ring. I'm wearing one right now.”

…tracking sleep quality and stress levels using wearable technology
“So now that I'm back on testosterone and we're tracking my blood levels and things are getting better for me, I just ordered an Oura ring. Yeah, that's what I'm wearing. I'm going to start tracking that again. I'm a month in. It's good for sleep tracking and stress tracking.”

…tracking sleep quality and how it impacts daily performance and health
“I've realized how important sleep is lately because I started tracking mine with Oura Ring and eight sleep mattresses. I love that. I think that's a phenomenal, those are phenomenal tools. Phenomenal. I notice when my HRV is low, I feel way off. Yeah. Like the next day. And do you feel like when you're fully rested, like your performance substantially improves? Night day. Yeah. Like if I'm scoring in the 90s, I know I'm chilling that day. But if I get a low score, I'm going to feel it.”

…tracking sleep quality and monitoring heart rate variability
“I have an Oura ring. I don't have a relationship with them, but I found my Oura ring to be helpful in helping me track sleep. I have a Sleep 8 mattress. I don't have a relationship with them, but that... I have that one too. Did you like that? It's very useful. Yeah. See the HRV. You can see the amount of deep sleep, REM sleep.”

“I am such a nutty case. I have an aura ring. I have an ultra human ring. I wear my Apple watch. I have an eight sleep mattress because I want to know how am I sleeping. And I've now noticed that I, anytime I eat late, I don't get a good REM sleep or good deep sleep.”

And I look at my sleep score every single day. I look at my HRV. And just know, sleep is such an important priority that knowing the amount of deep sleep I have for organ regeneration, the amount of REM sleep I get for brain and neurological healing and total sleep, it is a big priority for me.”

…tracking sleep quality and heart rate variability for health optimization
“You know, I wear an Oura ring at night. And honestly, it's one of my favorite tests I've ever done, if not my favorite, because it's also testing something called HRV, heart rate variability, which is a really great indicator for longevity, stress, and how healthy I am in that moment. And part of that is my sleep score. But I look at this regularly because I know that sleep is one of the single greatest factors for longevity and healing.”

…tom holland discovering how alcohol was disrupting his sleep using a wearable ring
“I bought one of those rings that will tell you about your sleep. Yeah, or a ring. Yeah. And it was amazing because I couldn't sleep. I was like, why can't I sleep? I'm working 14 hours a day. I'm doing two hours in the gym. I'm eating really healthily and I can't sleep. What's wrong with me? I bought this ring and it was booze. It just, it completely affected my sleep.”

…using wearable technology to track sleep quality and heart rate variability
“When I work with my clients, sleep is actually one of the biggest pillars of health... So I'll use things like Oura Ring. I know we looked at your Oura Ring also, but I had mold exposure a few years ago. That was my environment that was causing stress to my body. And it wasn't actually until I looked at my Oura Ring, my heart rate variability, continued to drop and drop. My REM sleep started dropping as well.”

…tracking sleep stages and circadian rhythm for optimized wellness and recovery
“So I don't have the aura ring with me now, but I track my sleep, you know, and you track the stages and you control what you eat, you know, and before that, and you know, you're fasting and stuff, you don't want to eat like, you don't want to eat like close to time you go to sleep. You want to sleep around 10 or 11. Your circadian rhythm is impaired. You know. How many hours? Hey, eight hours, you know, eight hours is good, you know?”
