The document discusses breathing rates and their effects on the body. A normal breathing rate is 10-12 breaths per minute, while stressed breathing is 14-18 breaths per minute. Taking more rapid, stressed breaths causes more dehydration as water is released from the body, and increases stress hormones that can fatigue the body. Slow, diaphragmatic breathing at 6-8 breaths per minute is more calming and can energize the body instead of relying on coffee.
