Has anyone experimented with taking off the headphones and just meditating or doing visualizations on your own (Without the tones to guide you) with the belt on? I find that if I do this, I am much better able to relax and yet I still reach and stay within the target breathing zone.

The music and tones just distract me and I get so caught up in following them that I can tell I am tense. Any input or suggestions would be welcome. I did it this way last night and at the end felt very relaxed and dreamy and my breathing had dropped to around 3 bpm with no effort or strain.

Thanks!
