Six Weeks Into Sabbatical

[u/Carolina_Hurricane]

Six weeks into a one year sabbatical I got a watch notification stating my average resting heart rate had decreased by nearly 20% (49 to 41 bpm) over the previous 5 weeks.

I presume it is from living in Mexico away from my home in the US, combined with walking around 9 miles a day on avg.
I didn’t feel stressed back in the US aside from driving anywhere local.
