Box Breathing for Maximum Calm

About this Class

Try three or four cycles of this box breathing exercise daily to achieve maximum calm, focus, and concentration.

Box breathing — most commonly known as squared breathing — is a deep, paced breathing exercise that can help you feel calm, relax your mind and body in stressful situations, and improve focus and concentration. Research has shown that this type of practice can strengthen our capacity to regulate emotions, reduces blood pressure and cell degeneration, and also heightens performance amongst other benefits.
