Box breathing for tilt control

Tilt is physiological before it is emotional: shallow chest breathing, raised shoulders, faster pulse. Box breathing interrupts the loop. Four counts in, four hold, four out, four hold — three cycles, roughly 50 seconds, which is less than one orbit. This session teaches the count, the posture, and the tell you should watch for in yourself (jaw and shoulders). Practise it away from the table so it is automatic when you need it.
