A lifetime is determined by the number of time one inhales and exhales. In case of disruption in the rhythm of breathing various diseases attack. Hence, one should be cautious about breathing. Slow inhaling and exhaling does wonders in prolonging the lifetime.
Erratic and faster breathing decreases the lifespan that's why animals breathing faster have lesser lifespan whereas, animals like elephants, tortoises have a larger lifespan because of the slow breathing. So,start practicing pranayaama!
