I have been performing visualization exercises involving a deliberate increase in field of vision. Last night I was able to achieve a 360 degree dome which was absolutely amazing and challenging. Also tried creating a sphere field of vision looking IN, as if looking at an object from all angles...this will definitely take some time to develop! Thank you for sharing!

Maintaining an awareness of the whole of one's visual field can be an important support for the practice of mindfulness in daily life. I'm not sure why you wonder whether it might hamper your awareness -- it's quite the opposite, I'd have said. All the best, Bodhipaksa Hi Eamon,

The first time I tried peripheral awareness I was surprised at how much I relaxed. I'll try to incorporate it into my meditation practice and my daily routine. Thank you.
