What might work for you might not work for another person.<br \/>\nBased on the question asked, I suggest you try out both for about two weeks. First week, open your eyes, focus on something and meditate. Don&#8217;t jump into conclusions yet whether or not it works and then the second week, you try the second method. Close your eyes, play a soothing\/calming music and completely avoid distractions.<br \/>\nAfter the two weeks, you compare how you felt during the first week and then, the second week.
