Music can have different effects on our respiratory rate depending on the tempo, rhythm, and melody of the music. Fast-paced music can increase our respiratory rate, while slow-paced music can decrease it.

Music can activate both the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for our fight-or-flight response, and the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for our rest-and-digest response. The effects of music on our autonomic nervous system can influence our respiratory rate.

Slow-paced, calming music can help to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes relaxation and reduces stress. This type of music can help to lower our heart rate, blood pressure, and respiratory rate.
