When I lived in Thailand I used to see Bettas living in their ponds, they really don't move around that much 'cause movement alerts predators like the nasty turtles that love to eat them. Being in a smaller tank/bowl just isn't ideal. I even keep several Bettas (1 male : 8 females) in a 6 ft assorted tank...they really just sit on plants near the surface and chill.
