壓力的臨界點,如何被量化?
今年 GWS 全球健康高峰會對談中,WHOOP 全球表現部總監 Kristen Holmes 提出一個清晰而精準的觀點:壓力並非問題本身,真正需要被理解的是失衡。
身體擁有驚人的適應能力,但多數人從未真正知道自己的「承載量」。可穿戴科技的價值在於提供一套可量化的生理語言,從心率變異、深層睡眠品質到呼吸頻率,讓我們得以判斷何時該承受更多、何時該進入恢復。
數據不只是監測,而是為現代人提供一個可視化的自我邊界。
我們真的理解,睡眠運作了嗎?
Beautiful Destinations 創辦人暨 CEO Jeremy Jauncey 分享自己作為全球旅行者的長期觀察:人們常以為自己「睡不好」,但真正的問題是,我們從未真正理解睡眠的內涵。
可穿戴數據讓我們第一次看見深層睡眠、快速動眼期與隔天精神狀態之間的關聯性。當疲累不再只是主觀感受,而是以曲線與指標被具象呈現時,人們反而更願意調整生活作息。
睡眠因此從自然發生的生理狀態,轉變為可被主動管理的關鍵策略。
「我覺得我很健康!」健康能靠感覺判斷?
Kristen 在會議中說道:「健康長久以來是一種主觀陳述,直到可穿戴科技讓它成為一項可被測量的事實。」
大多數人對自身健康抱持「想像的樂觀」,但心率變異與長期壓力曲線顯示身體的真實狀態。她強調,長壽並非只是延長生命,而是延長一段低負擔、高效能的生命期,使人能持續以良好的狀態生活與工作。
人類健康表現的標準,正在被重新定義
Jeremy 認為,人類表現的定義正在改變!
過去,我們關注的多是運動成績或工作產能,但現在,健康韌性正成為核心指標。
WHOOP 與其他健康科技讓我們看見壓力、恢復與生活節奏之間的動態連結,使「表現」從輸出轉變為輸入與恢復的整體平衡,也促使企業與領導者開始重新思考可持續高效能的模式。
可穿戴科技推動,長壽產業量化革新
Kristen 將可穿戴科技視為打開長壽產業新篇章的鑰匙。每個人的手腕,都成為一座微型研究室。
過去仰賴實驗數據的長壽研究,如今能透過連續、個人化的日常生理資訊推進。這些數據讓生活方式的調整更具體可行,也使長壽概念從抽象的願景落地成日常習慣。
壓力管理,成為新一代長壽技術核心
壓力管理正逐漸成為新一代長壽科技核心。透過 HRV 等關鍵指標,我們第一次得以理解壓力、睡眠與情緒之間的連鎖反應。
Jeremy 補充,長壽不等於不老,而是維持「持續能活、能動、能投入生活」的能力。穿戴裝置數據,帶來的不是對數字的執著,而是一種更精準認識自我、管理能量的方式。
定義你的長壽公式!你想更了解身體的哪一面?
穿戴科技帶來的生物數據,正在改變我們對身體的想像。壓力有跡象、睡眠有深度、健康有事實,而長壽也首次變得可量化。
但真正的長壽旅程仍然是個人化的,每個人都有獨特的生活節奏與需求。
在所有數據當中,你最希望更了解自己的哪一面?
你是否也正在探索一種更平衡、更有韌性的生活方式?
你的回答,將決定屬於你自己的「長壽公式」。
How Do We Quantify the Threshold of Stress?
During the GWS25 conversation, WHOOP’s VP of Performance Kristen Holmes highlighted a critical idea: stress itself isn’t the enemy—imbalance is.
The human body can adapt to extraordinary demands, yet most people don’t know their personal “load capacity.” Wearable technology offers a quantifiable language of physiology—from HRV to sleep depth and respiratory rate—transforming stress from a vague feeling into a measurable signal.
These metrics redefine how individuals understand effort, recovery, and the boundaries of sustainable performance.
Do We Truly Understand How Sleep Works?
Jeremy Jauncey, Founder & CEO of Beautiful Destinations of GWS 2025, shared his insights as a global traveler: most people assume they “sleep poorly,” when in fact the real issue is that we’ve never truly understood sleep.
Wearable data reveals, for the first time, the relationship between deep sleep, REM cycles, and next-day cognitive performance. When fatigue becomes visible—not just felt—through charts and metrics, people become more willing to adjust their lifestyle.
Sleep shifts from a passive biological function to an actively managed strategy for resilience and recovery.
Is Your Confidence in Your Health Fact or Illusion?
Kristen emphasized that health has historically been a subjective statement—until wearables made it a measurable fact.
Most people maintain “optimistic illusions” about their well-being, yet HRV trends and long-term stress markers tell a more honest story.
Longevity, she argues, is not about living longer but about extending the years in which individuals operate with low physiological burden and high functional capacity.
The Standards of Human Performance Are Being Redefined
Jeremy noted that the definition of human performance is shifting. Where it once centered on output—athletic results or productivity—it now includes resilience as a core metric.
Wearable insights illuminate the dynamic relationship between strain, recovery, and lifestyle rhythms. Performance becomes a holistic cycle rather than a linear output, prompting companies and teams to rethink what sustainable excellence truly requires.
Wearables Are Driving a Data-Led Longevity Shift
Kristen described wearable tech as the catalyst for a new chapter in longevity. Every wrist now holds a micro-laboratory.
What once required clinical trials can now be observed through continuous, individualized physiological data. These insights turn lifestyle changes into actionable protocols, transforming longevity from an inspirational concept into a measurable daily practice.
Stress Management Emerges as a Core Longevity Technology
Stress management is emerging as a foundational longevity technology. Through HRV and other biomarkers, we can finally see the physiological chain reactions linking stress, sleep, and emotional states.
Jeremy added that longevity is not about staying young—it’s about staying capable. Wearable data provides a clearer lens for understanding the body’s energy dynamics and sustaining meaningful performance across a lifetime.
What Will Your Longevity Formula Be?
Wearable data is reshaping how we interpret the body—stress becomes detectable, sleep becomes layered, health becomes factual, and longevity becomes measurable.
Yet the longevity journey remains deeply personal. Each of us moves through life with different rhythms, capacities, and priorities.
Among all these metrics, which part of your body or lifestyle are you most eager to understand?
Are you currently searching for a more balanced and resilient way to live?
Your answers shape the longevity blueprint that belongs to you—and you alone.
