In this short video, we explore softening the gaze, also known as soft eyes, or peripheral vision. This is a simple technique that you can use to calm your nervous system and help you reduce stress and anxiety. You can use it at work to prevent burnout, or in your everyday life. It is a particularly useful way of down regulating the nervous system when we are using phones and laptops.
