First entry

No assignments, no correct answers.

Three blocks. Open eyes - closed - open again. We look not only at what happens in silence, but also at what remains after it.

part 1 · 10 minutes

Open eyes

Sit comfortably. The back is straight or supported.

Look ahead of you. Or down. How comfortable.

You don't need to do anything. Don't meditate, don't concentrate, don't try to calm down.. Just sit.

Thoughts - let them come. Feelings - let them be. This is not a test. This is a snapshot of you as you are right now.

10 minutes have passed.

part 2 · 15 minutes

Closed eyes

Close your eyes.

what is this

The space between thoughts

There's a pause between every thought. A short period of silence before the next thought comes. Most people never end up there: the next thought comes before they even notice the gap.

Your task is to find this gap. And stay in it.

No need to stop thoughts. No need to fight them. Just notice the pause between them and keep your attention there.

No body. No content. Only silence.

If the thought comes, it’s fine. Just go back to the pause.

15 minutes have passed.

part 3 · 10 minutes

Eyes open again

Open your eyes.

Don't do anything. Don't judge what happened. I just opened my eyes and stayed where I was.

The silence that has appeared - try not to lose it. Just look ahead. No comment. No analysis.

10 minutes have passed.

after the session

Briefly about yourself

Sit a minute. Then answer a few questions, either in writing or by voice.

Four questions

Answers are not graded. They are needed to compare what you felt with what the neuroband recorded.

  1. How did you feel during the session overall?? Comfortable, tense, neutral?
  2. To what extent do you think you have managed to enter silence with your eyes closed?? Rate from 1 to 5, where 1 - thoughts did not stop at all, 5 - was in pause most of the time.
  3. What was most difficult: find a pause, hold it or return to it after the thought came?
  4. When you opened your eyes in the third part - Did the silence remain or did it immediately go away?
