  • Box breathing.

    Box breathing involves four basic steps, each lasting 4 seconds:

    1. breathing in
    2. holding the breath
    3. breathing out
    4. holding the breath

    It takes some getting used to, so you’ll be distracted at first having to concentrate on your breathing.

    I also like to meditate by emptying my mind and thinking about a giant, unlit room with a spotlight on a chair that I’m sitting in. Whenever my mind wanders to anywhere but there, I force myself to bring it back and only think about me sitting in that chair. I’m neither happy, sad, nor mad. I’m just existing in the chair; breathing and existing.

    And if all else fails: don’t panic. Grab a towel and stick your thumb out. Maybe you’ll get lucky and catch a ride on a Vogon ship. And most importantly, “On no account allow a Vogon to read poetry at you.”
