Box Breathing

Breathing exercises are a very effective tool for self regulation, but self regulation can be hard to learn. 

The 'Box Breathing' printable supports us in learning to self regulate using a simple but effective breathing technique.  

Breathing in time while tracing the sides of the box, helps us regulate our breathing while giving our brain a visual to focus on, giving our nervous system a chance to regulate.
