In reply to fuoco. Thinking of a point close up is fine. And the chart should be at a distance where it's a little blurry, so that your visual system has something to do.

Great activity, this is very feels very helpful and relaxing (and right!)
I was thinking, when I close my eyes and think of a point I tend to think of a point very close up front, it’s more natural for me than thinking of one across the room or far away – myopic tendency? Should I be thinking of a point far away? Should I be thinking of a point at about the distance of the chart or object I’m looking at when opening my eyes? Should the chart be at a very blurry distance or just a bit?

Easy! Shitfting and central-fixation without trying! Nice way to relax.

Dave, thanks — this is great, so clear and so simple. Your last point, “Start paying attention to what’s out there…” is one I’ve been focusing on lately. I can see so much better when I pay attention to what I’m looking at! Keep the wisdom coming.

Excellent explanation! I just wrote a post about memory, and how important it is to start by remembering small points. Then I came over here and discovered that you are writing on similar lines. I’ll add a link to this page. Cheers, Sorrisi
