Closing one's eyes can be very helpful for becoming conscious of subtle things, especially for those who, like me, are hyperliterate screen fiends.
Sitting with good posture in a dark room also really helps. An isolation tank is good too, I have heard. But none are necessary. Just good tools when applied properly.
And sometimes it's best to go for a walk, think it through, or sit for a while. Other times it's best to act without hesitation.A big part of the skill is knowing when to do what. That's my take.
- ffhhj 5y agoWhen I forget something I quickly close my eyes and clear my mind, take a deep and slow breath and the idea usually emerges again before exhaling. It takes 2-5 seconds and I will continue with my mind busy. Not sure if that's a known meditation technique, but it's the most useful I've found to get back on track.
