Extended Box Breathing (For Greater Ease Or Sleep)

This type of breathing (4 second inhale, 4 second hold, 6 second exhale, 2 second hold) is known to help with panic and anxiety, focus, and to get ready for sleep. We begin with a couple deep breaths and then move into a simple guidance on when to inhale, hold, exhale and hold. This can be done on your own of course, but sometimes it's nice to leave the counting to someone else when the goal is to relax deeply. 4:30 of guidance, then music lingers.
