I wore an Oura Ring every day for 3 years. Here's why I quit.

I wore an Oura ring every day for 3 years, but something strange happened: I’d wake up feeling like a bear after hibernation, but because my score was a 70, I’d suddenly feel exhausted.I realised I had outsourced my intuition to a metric. In this episode, I explore why psychology leads physiology and why your sleep tracker might be the very thing standing between you and a good life.This episode is for you if:You use an Oura Ring, Apple Watch, or Whoop and feel "ruled" by the data.You’re a perfectionist chasing a 90+ score every morning.You’ve noticed that "optimising" your life is actually making it feel smaller.You want to stop chasing metrics and start trusting your own experience again.🕐 TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 The 3-year experiment (and why I stopped) 0:07 Why psychology leads physiology0:47 How a "bad" score can ruin a perfectly good morning 1:33 The Celebrity Trap2:18 The "Rabbit Hole" of magnesium, supplements, and cold plunges 2:59 Are you optimising for the score or for your life? 4:42 The Perfectionist Trap: Why 90 is never enough 5:04 Life Contraction5:49 A year without a tracker: How I feel now 6:32 The Basics: What actually works (that you don't need an app for) 7:47 Do you want to live forever, or just be happy?CONNECT WITH ME: I work with business owners and leaders who are ready to step off the optimisation treadmill and design a life with true intention. 🌐 Website: https://ben-robins.com/ 💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-robins-coaching/What metric are you optimising for that might be moving you away from what you actually want?
