After a focus timer ends, or before you start again, you can follow a moving dot for 30 seconds to 1 minute and give your eyes a brief pause. This short transition is inspired by papers and research on visual comfort and attention design. - Color and emotion research on how hue, brightness, and saturation may influence emotional tone and arousal - Curvature preference research on how rounded forms can feel more comfortable than sharp shapes - Smooth pursuit research on how following a moving target requires attention, and why speed and movement range matter - Accessibility research and practice around motion comfort You do not need to choose a meditation course or start a long session.
