Box Breathing is a scientifically proven way to calm down and activate the so-called parasympathetic nervous system, our rest and recovery mode.
Often referred to as 'square breathing' or 'tactical breathing,' Box Breathing is a rhythmic pattern that anchors your mind to your breath. Picture a box, with each side representing a motion - inhale, hold, exhale, hold - each lasting for four, unhurried seconds. The magic of this technique, like other forms of cadence breathing, lies in its repetition. Our brains are wired to recognize patterns, and when we provide a clear, consistent pattern, our brains take note. It's like declaring, 'I'm taking control.' And this simple act of assertion calms the central nervous system almost instantly.
A little bit about myself: I'm Kitaro, a Movement, Kung Fu, and breathwork practitioner and teacher. I don't like fitness. Instead, I like to combine Movement with philosophical thinking - if that makes sense. I try to publish weekly videos. So, if you like my vibe, please subscribe to this channel.

I’ve been doing Wim Hof breathing since May of 2019 … But the last 5 months I use Kitaro’s guided videos. He so calming and genuine…he was born for this role!

Kit, shout out from the other side of the world. I'm a business owner, my wife too, with two kids under 2 y/o old, and both working from home. Please continue to summarize Wim (Hof), Andrew (Hubermann) and Andy (Galpin) as far as possible. Makes it easier to digest the bite sized info in maintaining our lifestyle, in a sustainable way. Thanks for your guidance and effort in your examples and videos.
Box Breathing originally came from the Samurai, which makes it even cooler.
Hey! Great explanation today. In depth. Box breathing was taught to me as a way to bring myself out of full on panic mode, like when windows of tolerance are completely narrowed to the point of non functionality. A great way to give ourselves a chance to realign and focus when stressors are at a peak. Thank you!
You have such a calming voice. I also really loved this technique! Subscribed! :)
He got good voice n eyes much appreciation GURU
thank you for the effort to create this informative and nice-to-watch video. you make it very easy for me to understand and apply the method. i wish u have a good time
A wonderful easy to grasp and understand, highly valuable tool for anxiety thanks a million x
Thank you!
I used box breathing so that I can hold my breath easier when swimming, ended up getting sleepy and now I do them every time I'm feeling insomniac, can't wait to see what other benefits box breathing has for me :D
It's nice how you explain recalibration in particular.
Excellent video again Kitaro.
Enjoyed particularly the in depth details and ways to incorporate into your own life.
Thank you for the great teachings. Today I broke my underwater swimming record while holding the breath thanks to 5min box breathing 5min win hof breathing method for relaxation. By 30% !! ❤ results - the best motivator.
Breathe is life yes sir
I forgot about this wonderful technique. Definetly going to use it now. Thank you Kitaro.
Thank you. This is valuable content.
Been noticing the thumbnail journey. Best one yet Kitaro :)
Thank you for caring
It’s too much life changing. Talking from experience 👍
Do you care to elaborate?
Kitaro could do ASMR videos…his voice is soothing as it needs to be.
I'll convince my partner to try your 7 day trial breath work. Thank you
Yes sir !
Thanks for this . Great for inducing quick deep sleep. I’m doing your advanced breathing on awakening and this box breathing every night. ❤🙏
Thank you sir
very deatailed as always👌🙏.in jeneral what are the benifits compering to the wim of method? i practice w.h for years in the morning.if chosing to "invest"😊and do both,when will be the right time for each of them during the day? 🙏
Great content and explanation!
Thank you 🙂
Thankyou!
Thanks man👍
Thank you for this powerful video on box breathing, which I have been practicing for many years. There are many teachers of this technique who point out that the out breath should be longer than 4 beats, more like 6 to 8 beats (whatever is natural for each person). It is my understanding that this is the way that Navy Seals are trained to do it.
Very good information and it could be life changing. Thank you for sharing =)
Hi, I need to ask a question. I've read that while the Wim hof breathing exercises you stop getting oxygen into your brain, and so that It can be very harmful for the proper function of It, anything you know about this?
Thanks a lot
Hey Kitaro. Firstly, thanks a lot for all these amazing videos you're providing us with.
Secondly, i have this question -
I am trying to adapt a particular breathing pattern for almost all the time of the day. Like in Demon slayer, the Hashiras had Total concentration breathing constant.
Which breathing pattern is the best for me to adapt and practice while I do other works like walking or sitting in class or doing household?
(I can easily maintain my breathing well while i am not doing cognitive works)
My 2c : try coherent breathing 👍🏼
Thanks you
Isn't the out breath supposed to be longer than the in breath to relax?
breathing style learned
Aaa so I'm supposed to be taking ice baths, not nice baths .. 🤣
So what is the most effective breathing to calm down? Or most simple to do in public?
This is similar to the step breathing ladder used in Systema.
Hey Kitaro! Last time I did the Wim Hof Breathing I felt amazing as usally the first three rounds. But then, at the beginning of the fouth round I was extremely overwhelmed with the fellings in my head and how I started to perceive my body. I felt dizzy, my hands and feet numb and I felt like there was a stinging in the heart region. All of that made me anxious and I felt that I would be about to colapse, espiacally when I was gettiing up from the chair and started walking. These bad feelings lastet for hours, even when I went to sleep at night it was still there, however weakened. Do you have experience with this kind of reactions?
Usually I love the breathing exercices but after this experience I will stay from them (for now).
PS: Thanks for your videos, they are great!
Box breathing is a lot tamer than Wim Hof breathing. It may or may not help get you out of that state, but I don't believe it would worsen the condition. Likely it would help.
Had the same experience and symptoms. Lastet for days... Don't force...
take a small step
Yes, this can happen. Do the breathwork a little gentler and calmer.
Sounds like clinical hyperventilation, maybe do the WH method less intensively. Add the box breathing too...@@BrandonVMoore1
The cold plunge with arthritis is rough sir
I modify cold showers
This is like 30 seconds of information. Talk less and say more.
