I interview Dr. Torkil Færø, the author of the most recent (and, in my opinion, approachable and actionable) book on heart rate variability, The Pulse Cure. He's a Norwegian doctor with over 100,000 patient consults under his belt, one of the top Biohackers in his country, an "octo-glot" (a word I just invented for someone who speaks 8 languages), and he's on an expert consultant for our new flagship program, Anakainōsis.

HRV may seem nerdy and complicated, but one thing is guaranteed when you start self-quantifying it; unexpected edifying findings. You'll quickly learn some surprising things about how the way you eat, drink, sleep, exercise, socialize, or work impacts the state of your autonomic nervous system and with it, your energy reserves, health, and - ultimately - your longevity. Whether you've just heard of HRV or you're well-acquainted with it, this book will guide you to the health transformation that awaits when start measuring what's now so easy and affordable to measure.
