Learn to stabilize sleep schedules with proven self-management strategies and wake
more refreshed with more energy to enjoy life. Dr. Stein's Sleep course offers practical
and affordable strategies to help you improve your sleep. She teaches you the benefits and the
how-to of sleep charting - with or without a wearable tracker.

Dr. Stein retired from medical practice at the end of 2022 to bring everything that she learned,
over 33 years, about Myalgic Encephalomyelitis / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS),
Fibromyalgia (FM) and Environmental Sensitivities (ES), Long COVID, and chronic pain to
anyone worldwide wanting to take charge of their health and improve their quality of life.
She became ill with ME/CFS, FM, and ES in 1989. Since then, she learned that she has the full
alphabet of related conditions including joint hypermobility, orthostatic dysfunction, and Mast
Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). Her passion is to help others with these conditions and to
make their journey to healing easier and faster than hers was.

Forisma, I just used a random image of a tracker.
I, myself use the oura ring and it provides that information. I think many models of fitbit, Garmin and Polar may provide this line graph.
Note, this graph is not in real time.
You get shown it in the morning when you download the data from the night.
Perhaps others can comment whether they get the HRV line graph in the morning.

7:58 Tracking your ideal sleep
Total sleep 7-9 hours
Sleep efficiently >85%
Deep sleep 1.5-2 hours
REM sleep 1.5-2 hours
9:30 Lowest heart rate around 3AM and in the 40's, and a U shape
10:35 HRV. Inverse U shape. Peak at around 3 AM. Anything above 60

Which tracker is this? I don't have a minute to minute HRV report on mine, it only measures a morning HRV metric.

[@DrEleanorStein]

I don't know of a tracker that provides minute to minute HRV. (I'm sure if one exists, someone might comment). HRV is always changing so minute to minute is not very useful.
More useful is the "readiness" measure which is an average of overnight HRV. This indicates how well a person recovers from the day before and whether they are "ready" to start the day. A high HRV indicates good recovery and the opportunity to more in the day. The highest overnight HRV is also useful. The higher the better - indicates a coherent autonomic nervous system.

@@DrEleanorStein I refer to this graph 10:35 I don't get to see this graph on my tracker. Only a morning readiness HRV metric.
Can you possibly share the name of the tracker you are discussing?
