A screen sits about sixty centimetres from your face for most of the day. This is the opposite. Find the longest view available, a roofline, a tree across the street, the horizon if you are lucky, and let your eyes rest on it.

How to do it

  • 1Find a window or a doorway with some distance in it.
  • 2Pick the furthest point: a roofline, a tree, the horizon.
  • 3Let your eyes rest there. Read nothing.
  • 4When your eyes drift back to near things, send them out again.

An experience, not a claim. Offered as a way to take a break. Away makes no health claim for it.
