Hello...

I would not worry about this. Don't think that if your heart rate falls below 60 that something is wrong. It is not uncommon while at rest, to have your HR dip below 60. Some people have rates that drop into the 30'3&40's while sleeping.

Our heart rates will fluctuate which, for most, is a normal variable. Try not to worry too much about this. :)
