Thanks x2. I just got the meditation book and moved to high up on my reading list — every one of your recommendations in the past has been so overwhelmingly useful that I’ll read just about any book or paper you recommend. Those fatigue papers you recommended were a serious game-changer for me in particular, checking out the progress model and Mind Illuminated now.
Also thanks. I’ve started this book from one of your posts and am greatly satisfied, although not finished it yet.
One thing I’m curious about is if you’ve tried one of those EEG mindstate feedback thingies. I’ve recently acquired one and get the feeling that it could be a very effective tool to train ‘getting attention back on track’ skills, but not necessarily ‘noticing when attention is getting off track’ skills.
If you’ve tried them and want to share your thoughts I’d be happy to read them. Otherwise I might plan to review the device myself at some point.
Some friends tried them (maybe older versions of them? this was a while ago) and reported that they felt more like toys than anything genuinely useful, so then I never gave them a shot myself.
Here’s my favored progress model, excerpted from the meditation book that I won’t shut up recommending. :)

Any chance you could link to whatever you’re referring to? :)
Cool! Would be great to hear what you think once you get to it.

Glad to hear you’re liking it!
