Just as you track your blood pressure, blood sugar, and weight, heart rate variability or HRV may be a handy parameter to track. By measuring the variation in time between each heartbeat, it tells you whether your body is in fight-or-flight mode or relaxation mode. If you’re stressed, your HRV will be low, and if you’re relaxed, it will be high. By knowing your HRV, you can gauge the impact of stress on your day, among other things.

If you look back on your childhood, you will remember plenty of bouts of stomachaches. They’re that common in children. Parents tend to dismiss them as something not so serious, whereas in some cases, they might be.
