Stress and Recovery Balance

The stress and recovery balance score helps you identify when the load is too heavy and recovery is too low.

The cumulative score of the entire measurement also helps you identify whether there is sufficient recovery for the amount of stress in your life.

Based on your measurement results, what promotes good recovery for you? How can you expand this across most of your days?

Restorative Effect of Sleep

The sleep score reveals how restorative your sleep was. It is influenced by the amount and quality of recovery during sleep, as well as sleep duration.

The sleep section also shows your heart rate variability, one of the most objective indicators of physiological functioning, balance and resilience.

Good sleep starts when you wake up in the morning! Looking at your data, where can you adjust your day and evening routines, to set yourself up for better sleep?

Health Effects of Physical Activity

The physical activity score helps you determine if the amount and intensity of your exercise are in line with general health guidance and your current fitness level.

Bluezones research indicates that the best physical activity is the one you enjoy most, but also the one you can easily incorporate into your daily schedule (and the one you can keep doing up to your hundredth birthday and beyond).

What activity do you enjoy that would inspire you to be moderately physically active every day?
