Two books, both under 200 pages by Les Fehmi, contain coaching and exercises for training and practice. Fehmi’s seminal text is “The Open-Focus Brain: Harnessing the Power of Attention to Heal Mind and Body.” Go through the exercises in the book and accompanying CD. In “Dissolving Pain: Simple Brain-Training Exercises for Overcoming Chronic Pain,” you learn to dissolve physical and emotional pain.
Keep coming back to the exercises in these books and CDs because open-Focus Alpha Synchronous state gets better and better with practice.The goal is to call on alpha synchronous state in any situation.
For someone with fear of eye contact, you might be talking with someone and visualizing the space between your eyes and their eyes. Or you might visualize the space between your eyes. Both will help shift to alpha synchronous open focus.
Pay Attention! 
Most of us spend most of our lives in a narrow objective focus. This mode of attention causes us to accumulate stress and to remain stressed, causing our nervous system to remain in an emergency mode of functioning. Your body reacts as if an emergency is in process, even though this is not actually the case.
With Open Focus, we move from narrow and objective to diffuse and immersed attention.We do this by focusing our attention on objectless, ubiquitous, space.

Attending to space shifts attention from narrow-objective, to diffuse, immersed focus. Dissolving stress and along with it physical and emotional pain is the result.
Four Basic Styles of Attention
Narrow Focus
We chronically narrow focus on a sensation, thought, or problem, to the exclusion of almost everything else. The extreme of narrow focus is obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD).
Diffuse Focus
Diffuse Focus is soft, open, and includes peripheral perception.
Objective Focus
With objective focus we step back from the experience.
Immersed Focus
With immersed focus we enter into and are absorbed by the experience. Attending to space shifts focus to an open, soft, diffuse, immersive experience.
Each of these styles of attending has its effective time and place.
