I’ve done box-breathing before presentations for work/school, but wonder what other methods are out there to clear your mind and relax.

    Okay, I have to ask, what adverse effects can be caused by meditation? It seems so harmless?

      Some people experience anxiety, pain, and psychosis, sometimes for long durations. If you want to dig deeper into this, do a web search for “meditation adverse effects” and you’ll find a good bit of peer reviewed work in good quality journals.

      I love meditation and it’s a major help in my life, but I can’t go around telling everyone it’s for them, because data suggests it’s definitely not for everyone! It seems to help most people though. Everyone’s gotta know for themselves.
