Oura Ring 4 ($349-$499)
The Oura Ring wasn't made specifically for anxiety, but its tracking features can be genuinely helpful. The fitness and wellness tracking ring monitors things like sleep quality, resting heart rate, and heart-rate variability — all metrics that tend to shift when you're stressed — and turns them into easy, digestible insights. For anyone who likes understanding what their body is doing (and why), that extra clarity can feel grounding. One of our former editors tested the Oura Ring 3 which has many similar features; learn more about it in our Oura Ring review.
Editor Quote: "For me, the most useful application has been tracking my sleep. I don't generally have an issue falling or staying asleep, but I do wake up tired often, as opposed to refreshed, energized, and ready to start the day. There are also lots of nights in which I don't get as much sleep as I'd like, and I was curious to see how that would affect my next day. I found that, in fact, when I got a sleep score lower than 80, I did feel more sluggish during the day. Most notably, when my amount of REM sleep was suboptimal, I would wake up with that tired feeling I've become accustomed to." — India Yaffe, former associate shopping editor
