Your breath is the cheapest pharmacy you’ll ever own.
When you breathe wrong, your body thinks it’s dying.
When you breathe right, your body thinks it’s safe.
Box breathing = a 4-step pattern Navy SEALs use in combat.
If it works in war, it works when the neighbor is fighting with her boyfriend at midnight.
The pattern:
• Breathe in for 4 seconds
• Hold for 4
• Breathe out for 4
• Hold for 4
• Repeat 4 rounds
No candles.
No incense.
No spiritual cosplay.

Your body LOVES predictability.
This creates both.
