# Training neutral

Before you can train any commands you need to train a Neutral state. Your Neutral brain activity will be used as a contrast to your brain activity during your command training. What is most important is that you do not think about any of your Command thoughts during your Neutral training. Other than that, you can hang out relaxed and let your mind wander.

To train Neutral, click on the Train button that appears to the right of the Neutral box. You will then be asked to hold a Neutral state for 8 seconds. During this time the cube will not move, so do not think about any of your Command thoughts during these 8 seconds.
