First seen May 04, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study looks at whether slow, steady breathing at 6 breaths per minute can lower stress more than breathing at a normal pace or just sitting still. Researchers will compare three groups of healthy adults to see if the specific rhythm offers unique benefits. Participants will do breathing exercises before and after a stress test, and their heart rate, stress hormones, and mood will be measured.
