hi everyone today i found out abt this technique called ‘box breathing’ some may already know abt it but i thought id share it with the mix community bc some may benefit from it in the moment of stress or panic. i hope your all ok or doing as best as you can remember you matter greatly and that there is light at the end of the tunnel. keep going ❤️

1) sit or stand with a straight back and close your eyes.
2) breathe in slowly to a count of four.
3) hold your breath for a count of four.
4) breathe out slowly and steadily through your mouth, counting to four.
5) hold your breath again for a count of four.

repeat as many times as needed remember you got this ❤️🫶🏻

ppl dont always need advice. sometimes all they rly need is a hand to hold. an ear to listen. and a heart to understand them. 🧸
