• How to transition from lost thoughts?

    To transition from lost thoughts, highlights the importance of being able to exit deep focus or the "tunnel" efficiently. He emphasizes the practice of task switching, which involves shifting from intense focus to a more relaxed state. One method he advocates is using physiological techniques like double inhaling and exhaling to calm down, followed by stepping outside to gain a broader perspective by viewing the horizon. This helps reset the brain and prepare for the next task 1.

    Additionally, supports the use of yoga Nidra or Non-Sleep Deep Rest (NSDR) as a practice to transition from active thinking to a state of "being and feeling." This involves shifting focus away from the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for making predictions and constantly thinking, to a more relaxed state where the brain can rejuvenate 2.
