Heart Rate Variability and Stress Level Your device analyzes your heart rate variability while you are inactive to determine your overall stress. Training, physical activity, sleep, nutrition, and general life stress all impact your stress level. The stress level range is from 0 to 100, where 0 to 25 is a resting state, 26 to 50 is low stress, 51 to 75 is medium stress, and 76 to 100 is a high stress state. Knowing your stress level can help you identify stressful moments throughout your day. For best results, you should wear the device while sleeping. You can sync your device with your Garmin Connect account to view your all-day stress level, long-term trends, and additional details. Using the Stress Level Widget The stress level widget displays your current stress level and a graph of your stress level for the last several hours. It can also guide you through a breathing activity to help you relax. 1 While you are sitting or inactive, swipe to view the stress level widget. TIP: If you are too active for the watch to determine your stress level, a message appears instead of a stress level number. You can check your stress level again after several minutes of inactivity. 2 Tap the touchscreen to view a graph of your stress level for the last four hours. Blue bars indicate periods of rest. Yellow bars indicate periods of stress. Gray bars indicate times that you were too active to determine your stress level. 3 To start a breathing activity, swipe up, select Yes, and enter a duration for the breathing activity in minutes.
