We’ve all heard about the concept of heart rate, especially in terms of working out or how it can become elevated with stress. But did you know that heart rate variability is an important metric for understanding your level of health?

Heart rate variability is actually a window into the dynamic shifts within the nervous system and how different things we do are interpreted in the body. 

Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru and Dr. Jay Wiles take a deep dive into the concept of heart rate variability, also known as HRV, and how we can use it to dial in our health routine on an extremely personalized level. 

Dr. Wiles is a scientist, clinician, and expert on all matters related to the human stress response, holistic mental health, heart rate variability, and peak performances. He’s a clinical health and performance psychologist with board certification in heart rate variability biofeedback and peripheral biofeedback, and he works as a leading consultant in psychophysiology to professional athletes, executives, and high performers. 

Dr. Wiles is also the cofounder and Chief Scientific Officer of Hanu Health, a company that’s pioneering a new and innovative means of using heart rate variability and respiratory training as diagnostic indicators of the dynamic nature of the human stress response and for providing therapeutic tools for regulating and conditioning this response for peak human performance.
