You can always try another time.

Exit technique

OK, let's get started.

There are four steps, like the four sides of a box. You can use the animation below to help you focus.

  • Breathe in for four seconds
  • Hold your breath for four seconds
  • Breathe out for four seconds
  • Wait four seconds before repeating

You may already know what triggers your negative thoughts and feelings. If you do, try using this breathing technique if you know you will encounter a certain trigger, or immediately after.

You can use the mood tracker to log your mood, and write notes about what your triggers might be.

That's all for this technique!
