Just see both pages and the four corners imagining the X. Be careful of staring. Remember to blink. You're just seeing the pages as you flip them so other than the hands turning the pages there is very little movement of the head. (the head would move if you start looking at each page specifically.)
The tangerine should be above the head floating if possible 30 to 45 cm above the head.If it's positioned correctly it won't drip down your back.
May I ask why you have such a distasteful ideal state trigger? It seems to me something that is so revolting would not trigger an ideal state.
While I teach the tangerine technique I don't use a tangerine myself. I have an aversion to them and prefer not to handle them myself. You're description has put me off even more and I am glad I don't rely on a tangerine for my ideal state.
I suggest you make a more positive trigger, even put on a baseball cap for your ideal state,if you want.
