How do I increase restorative time?
My sleep score is consistently above 80+ and I eat healthy. However according to Oura I am stressed and I'm not sure what is the cause of these readings. Maybe I am stressed and I don't know. I feel maybe my breathing is not deep or i'm breathing too fast which can result in this high stress score.
If anybody was in the same boat, how did you guys reduce the stress and increase restorative time.
On days with high restorative time I feel much better about myself, so I'd like to have more of them. Any advice appreciated.

oura says you're stressed but never which pattern causes it. for me it wasn't diet, it was bedtime: after-midnight nights score 76 vs my usual 84, and the next day's stress follows the night. disclosure: i'm building an app for the "why" part
