Square Breathing is also known as four-square breathing or box breathing. This deep breathing exercise can serve as a go-to relaxation skill for teens.
Sit comfortably in a chair, with your feet on the floor and hands in your lap.
Inhale slowly through the nose for a count of four, allowing the air to fill your belly.
Hold the breath in for a count of four.
Exhale slowly through the mouth for a count of four.
As you breathe, visualize a healing blue or white light washing over your body. Finally, hold the breath for a count of four.
Repeat the sequence for four minutes.
Ideally, repeat the exercise for four minutes, four times a day.
Consequently, practicing Square Breathing several times daily will help teens become calmer and more relaxed.
