This is a falling asleep mind exercise designed on the basis of Open Focus theory. This method is based on mind exercises, which are similar to guided meditation, but they are backed up by EEG neurofeedback research conducted by Dr. Lester Fehmi, a neuroscientist and psychologist from Princeton, over the last 40 years. The Open Focus attention exercises are usually astonishing for anyone who has tried them. They generate a feeling of very deep relaxation within minutes and they make the mind very quiet. It is a very pleasant and relaxing experience of being aware of yourself, your body, and your surroundings, feeling very peaceful and quiet at the same time.
