Andrew Huberman AI:
Meditation has two basic forms: focused attention and open observer. Focused attention meditation involves focusing on a target, such as the breath or a visual object, to enhance focus and attention. Open observer meditation involves purposefully not focusing on anything and allowing thoughts to come and go, which can enhance creativity and problem-solving. However, it's important to assess whether you are more interoceptively or exteroceptively biased before starting a meditation practice, as the wrong type of meditation can make things worse. Non-sleep deep rest or yoga nidra can be good alternatives to traditional meditation for those who have trouble falling asleep or tend to focus too much on their inner landscape.
