Heart rate
I just started paying attention to my heart rate and I’m not sure if it is normal. Just as I was falling asleep, I checked my Apple Watch and my heart rate read 50-60 bpm. Sometimes, my heart rate can increase quite rapidly and I’m unsure why because I don’t exercise too much. I think I might have anxiety or be stressed from exams. Is this normal?
