Box breathing, also known as square breathing, is a technique used by athletes, police officers, and high-stress professionals, including those in tech, to gain control over their physiological responses to stress. Breathe in for a count of four, hold for four, exhale for four, and then hold again for four. This pattern encourages a focus on breath regulation, helping to center the mind and diminish stress.
