It's a super basic thing that hopefully most people already know about, but "box breathing" really helps me when I need to relax. For people who aren't aware:

Four second long inhale, then hold for four seconds. Four second exhale, then hold for four seconds. Repeat.

After a bit I realize that I'm not counting anymore and it doesn't feel like holding my breath because now I'm just breathing slow on my own.
