CENTRE–PERIPHERY · EXPERIMENTAL
Hold the centre; notice each arriving ring.
Rest your gaze on the centre point. Rings appear one by one without transition effects; each cycle either restarts or contracts from the largest ring back to the centre.
This is not vision therapy and does not expand the anatomical field of view. Stop if you feel discomfort, dizziness or eye strain.
Central focus with expanding rings
An experimental attention warm-up for noticing rings while holding a calm centre point.
What might this practice support?
This exercise may support noticing and deliberately practising its target reading behaviour. By itself, it does not demonstrate lasting improvement or transfer to other texts.
How should it be used?
Begin at a comfortable level and progress only while the task remains accurate and understandable. Reduce pace or difficulty when meaning or comfort declines.
What does this exercise not guarantee?
One round cannot guarantee a lasting increase in reading speed, a wider anatomical field of view or the same result for every text. Compare it with comprehension measured in real passages.
