Relaxation/meditation and eyes defocus

[LLight]

I don't know if you have ever experienced the eyes-defocusing that can happen when you close your eyes and relax or concentrate on your breath.

I was able to do that pretty consistently when I was doing meditation like 3 years ago. Then, I tended to loose this "ability" along with the capacity to properly meditate (focus on the breath) by the way.

Recently, it seems like I recovered it so I wonder what is the explanation for me being or not being able to do it. Could the inability be induced by stress/cortisol?

Could be related to ADHD which I cannot really deny in my case.

Bump.

Do you see what I mean by "defocusing" and if yes, do you notice that you are or are not able to do it easily or even naturally when you close your eyes?
