## Caption

“My friends at @Olukai asked me to share one of my tips for mental fitness. This is one of my favorites.

For most of my life I had no idea I had anxiety. I was conditioned to push through any feeling of discomfort - to never let my emotions get in the way.

Then I started to heal. And the more I started healing the more present the anxiety became in my body. It called for me to notice it. To dive into it. To finally feel it. But what no one really tells you is that when you feel your feelings …it can be overwhelming.

And that’s where tools come in.

Box breathing has been an important tool in my emotional arsenal for years and is something I quietly rely on when I’m feeling stressed or anxious.

I hope this video brings you a little bit of peace today, and remember: this is just one of the many tools out  there. I hope you find the one that fits you the best.”
