Box Breathing Keychain-Anxiety Tool
Box Breathing Keychain-Anxiety Tool
Box breathing is one of the first things taught in therapy to help manage your breathing during a panic attack or when you feel one approaching.
This allows you to return your breathing to a resting state which can help you pass the panic/anxiety feelings faster and possible avoid the attack altogether.
I created this keychain as a tool to give the user a physical piece to help the senses focus on a visual & tactile object as well as the breathing. The thought here is to have you “all in” doing the breathing work.
Why a keychain? Most of use have our keys around all the time, and I thought maybe it could act as a reminder that you are in charge, not you anxiety.
It’s subtle, no one knows what it’s for but you, unless you tell them🫶🏻
