Hi Phyllis
I think that it is much better if you dont try and focus on the voices at both side or on one just one side, though maybe rather try and listen down the centre if you can.
To be honest all that I do is pop on a paraliminal, relax and concentrate on my breathing at the beginning, then after a short time my mind wanders and occasionally I fall asleep. I think this is fine as long as you have clearly stated your goal at the beginning of the session. Just let yourself drift and your subconcious will do the rest. You dont have to conciously focus.
I am partially deaf in my right ear though fortunately (pheeew!) I can still hear Paul's voice in that ear.
I hope that this helps
Simon
