Box Breathing link has been sent to all teachers and I would ask that we take a few minutes during some of our classes today to practice this.  Also know as Navy SEAL breathing technique, or tactical breathing, it’s a surprisingly simple and effective way to help regain calm and control of your thoughts when under stress.

1.    Inhale for 4 seconds (as the circle expands)

2.    Hold your lungs full for 4 seconds (as the circle stays fully expanded)

3.    Exhale for 4 seconds (as the circle shrinks)

4.    Hold your lungs empty for 4 seconds (as the circle is contracted)

5.    Repeat for as many times as you need to calm down.
