Before you start

Before you start

  1. 1

    Start the short session

    Use the button on the dedicated page to begin. Most drills last one minute, while the 20-20-20 timer lasts 20 seconds.

  2. 2

    Keep your head still

    Sit comfortably and move only your eyes. Blink naturally and avoid forcing the motion.

  3. 3

    Stop if it feels wrong

    The exercise should feel gentle. If it causes discomfort, stop and take a normal rest break instead.
