My Favorite Wearable to Calm Stress and Restore Healthy HRV with Dr. David Rabin

Dr. David Rabin, the inventor of the Apollo Neuro, joins the show to talk about how stress affects out body and why it is so important to improve our HRV (heart rate variability). He also goes over why trying to combat stress can actually create more stress, and how using the power of frequencies and sound therapy can reduce the negative health impacts of stress. David’s Apollo Neuro device is one of my absolute favorite wearables, because it uses these principles to help your body find a state of calm, and is scientifically proven to increase your HRV. The Apollo Neuro also tones and improves vagus nerve function which is essential in reducing the impact of stress. So many great topics covered in today’s podcast. Definitely don’t want to miss this one if you’re looking for an easy and effective solution for reducing your stress levels!   On today’s podcast, you will learn: What stress does to the body.
