Boxy: Relax and Relieve Stress vs Mindfull Breathing Usage & Stats
Box breathing (or square breathing) is a deep breathing exercise that helps you relax as you mindfully focus on counting your breaths.
Unlike other breathing exercises that don't employ breath counting or have uneven intervals between each step, box breathing is unique because it has four equal steps, similar to the four sides of a square.
Keeping true to box breathing's rule of fours, the method has four steps:
1) Slowly inhale for four seconds.
2) Hold your breath for four seconds.
3) Slowly exhale for four seconds.
4) Hold your breath for four seconds.
Boxy will guide you through this process. The circle and text hint will increase and decrease along with your breathing. You can also use the app with your eyes closed – sounds will help you.
You can change the duration of each step based on your comfort in settings.
