"Open Awareness Meditation, also known as “open attention,” “open monitoring,” or “soft focus,” is a form of mindfulness meditation in which you allow the many things present in your consciousness (sounds and other sensory input, as well as your thoughts and emotions) to arise in your awareness and then naturally fall away as they are replaced by different sounds, thoughts, etc. This kind of meditation is considered a “yin” practice."
Whenever I feel exhausted from focusing, I lie down in bed, put the covers over me and just BE.. Because of the Vyvanse maybe, I don't actually fall asleep - Sometimes I do if I'm really tired.. But not when I usually do it @ around 4-6pm. I lie there for 30-60 minutes and just think and experience.. The reason is that it doesn't require a lot of focus just "Soft focus" which is what I really need during those times.
I get focus exhaustion. It's like a form of sleep and changed the brain waves by giving the mind time to relax.
Then when I'm done, I feel much more aware, clear minded, happier, focused, relaxed etc
