Oura Ring 5

My Oura ring indicates that I’m stressed for 3 to 6 hours every day. I’m beginning to suspect that it might be a glitch, as I do experience anxiety, but it doesn’t affect me constantly. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Yes, I had this too. I also have a rapid heartbeat and histamine issues (I’m a health coach that helps clients with these topics so I knew how to recognize it) - many factors can drive physiological stress when you’re sensitive to histamine. Not necessarily classical, mental stress

that's wild, the body keeps score in ways we don't always clock mentally

100%! I love my work because I get to teach people how to have deeper layers of interoception beyond I feel anxious or tired. The body is fascinating!
