Yes, “box breathing” activates your parasympathetic nervous system and is a great way to reduce anxiety quickly. Method: - Deep breathe in through nose for 4 seconds - Hold for 7 seconds - Slow breathe out through mouth for 8 seconds Repeat this 10 times, morning, noon and before bed every single day. Do it before attending a meeting, social function or interview etc… works wonders!
