Vision is probably the closest physical aspect linked with our mind.
It follows, that perhaps vision is a helpful tool to switch between focused and expand awareness.

 

Focused vision leads to focused awareness.

 

Peripheral vision leads to expanded awareness.

 

With focused (tunnel) vision, you can see sharp details of a small point. Your view is narrower. Your attention flows to the point.
With (expanded) peripheral vision everything is a bit blurred, but your view is much wider. Your attention expands – you are able to work with more perceptions/impulses.

Focused vision is good when you need to focus on one thing (e.g. one arm, one ball or one body). The problem arises when you try, with a focused vision to keep track of more than one object e.g. 3 limbs, 8 balls or a crowd of people. Peripheral vision is much more suitable for multitasking. You have much better spatial awareness in the expanded vision mode.
