Your behaviour influences your sleep, stress, movement, and recovery, determining your overall health. This behaviour is a signal that, when decoded, provides insights to improve your health. These insights can help you make better health decisions that enhance your well-being over time.

Introducing Body Signal on the Ring AIR, a remarkable capability that distils your long-term behaviour into readable signals. These signals provide insights that help you understand your past and make changes for your future. By simplifying complex variables into the most relevant daily insights, Body Signal helps you better understand your sleep, movement, and recovery, supporting long-term health.

Here’s how to decode your signals to implement them to enhance overall health.

Streaks 

When you consistently take good actions, you set yourself up for a streak. These streaks serve as gentle nudges that keep you on track. As you progress, you get detailed insights into how your actions contribute to both short-term and long-term health benefits.

For instance, if you have recorded a good deep sleep score consistently, you will receive this streak.

“You’ve recorded a deep sleep contributor score of 95 for 24 days in the last 30-day period. This consistency ensures your body is getting the restorative sleep needed for physical and mental recovery. Deep sleep helps with hormone regulation, including those that control hunger and stress. Reflect on the strategies that have helped you achieve this and continue prioritizing them for better overall health.”

You will see that this streak conveys the area where you have done well, the period you have been consistent in and the benefits of keeping up with this pattern in the long term.

Trends highlight how your biomarkers evolve week on week, reflecting the impact of recent lifestyle choices or changes. This helps you better understand the interplay between your life choices and your body’s responses.

For instance, this is an example of a positive trend recorded:

“Your daily steps have increased by 35%. This significant boost in daily movement can greatly enhance your overall health and energy levels. Challenge yourself to maintain this momentum by exploring new walking routes or setting fun step goals on the app.”

A trend which conveys scope for improvement could look like this:

“Your Sleep Index has decreased by 5%! Quality sleep could improve your physical recovery, cognitive function and heart health. Review your bedtime routine and sleep environment to identify areas for improvement”.

How can Body Signals help you?

Think of the Ultrahuman Ring AIR as a compass – but for your health, and the Body Signals capability as the needle of this compass, nudging you in the direction of improved overall well-being. You will find that these Body Signals constantly communicate the long-term health benefits of your positive actions and small lifestyle changes in case of instances where you are falling behind on certain markers – propelling you to either keep up the momentum of your positive actions or re-evaluate the direction in which you are heading in. 

Here’s how you can access Body Signal: 

Typically in the morning, if a Body Signal; Streak or Trend, is generated you will receive a notification conveying the same and you will find the Body Signal tab at the top of all index cards; Sleep, Recovery and Movement. However, this tab only shows up if a Body Signal has been generated for that particular day.

Wear your Ultrahuman Ring AIR consistently so that it can recognize Trends and Streaks from your lifestyle and make the best use of the capability.
