JA✨Let’s pause together for just a moment✨
Breathe in, hold, and let go. Sometimes, a simple pause can ground us and bring us back to center. Join me in this moment of stillness.
This technique is called “box breathing”.
Box breathing, also known as square breathing, is a simple yet effective breathing technique that helps calm the mind and reduce stress. It involves four equal parts: inhaling, holding the breath, exhaling, and holding again. Here’s how to do it:
1. Inhale through your nose for a count of 4.
2. Hold your breath for a count of 4.
3. Exhale through your mouth for a count of 4.
4. Hold again for a count of 4.
Repeat this cycle for several minutes, focusing on the rhythm and the sensations of breathing. Box breathing helps activate the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation and enhancing focus. It’s used by athletes, Navy SEALs, and people in high-stress environments for its calming effects.
