Our mascot Lulu the Llama has learned that deep breathing reduces their stress & anxiety while improving their focus. If you're feeling overwhelmed, take a minute to do some "box breathing." With box breathing, you breathe in for 4 seconds --> Hold for 4 seconds --> exhale for 4 seconds --> Pause for 4 seconds. Repeat that process 3-5 times and enjoy!

Nuestra mascota Lulu de Llama ha aprendido que respirar profundo reduce su estrés y ansiedad mientras mejora su concentración. Si te sientes abrumado, tómate un minuto para hacer un poco de “respiración en cuadrado”. Con la respiración en cuadrado, inhalas durante 4 segundos ---- mantienes la respiración durante 4 segundos ----- exhalas durante 4 segundos ----haces una pausa durante 4 segundos. Repite ese proceso de 3-5 veces y disfruta.
