Why any of this works
The introduction
Brain rhythms, alpha synchrony, and Fehmi's discovery, in seven chapters, narrated over a canvas you can steer with the cursor.
When something hurts
Dissolving pain
Why pain pulls attention into a grip, why pushing it away keeps it loud, and Fehmi's four steps for attending to it with space, in six short chapters you scroll through, with a guided try at the end.
Two settings
Narrow and Wide
You are reading this with a narrow beam. Where it came from, what holding it costs, the other setting, and the dial between them, in five short chapters you scroll through, with a one-minute try at the end.
