This is a five-minute box (square) breathing guided meditation with Zachary Phillips.

Use this practice in response to stressful events, to calm down after exercise, as a lead into a meditation session, and as a sleep aid.

By slowing down and controlling the breath - breathing in for 4, hold for 4, out for 4, hold for 4.

The practice triggers the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting anxiety relief, relaxation, and performance enhancement.
