Guest guest Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 I calculated it differently than you. 18 breaths per minute is the normal rate of respiration. So if the subject did 18 humms per minute, for 60 minutes, he did 1,080 humms in the 1 hour before bed. During the day, if the subject did 60 humms each time, he spent approximately 3.33 minutes 4 times a day, and if he did 120 humms each time, he spent approximately 6.66 minutes 4 times a day.
