Box Breath Tutorial | Learn the Simple 4-4-4-4 Breathing Technique 😮‍💨

Box Breath, also called Square Breath or 4-4-4-4 Breath, is popular for its simplicity and stress-relieving benefits. Join YouAligned and YA Classes teacher Ashton August as she guides you through the simple 4-4-4-4 breathing technique.
This 4-4-4-4 breathing pattern is calming + relaxing. We love the Box Breathing because it’s easy to remember and also gives you a visual of drawing a box with your breath.
Here’s how to practice Box Breath:
•Inhale through your nose for 4
•Hold your breath at the top for 4
•Exhale through your nose for 4
•Hold at the bottom for 4
•This makes one full round
Repeat this breathing technique for 4 rounds total. Then let us know how you’re feeling in the comments!😮‍💨💭🙏
