They had a radio on which was nice. After a few sessions I started counting the zaps. The machine made a noise each time it gave a dose of radiation. There were 8 zaps, so I would just count them to know how much longer it would take. 7 more, 6 more etc. It was easier for me to know I could make it and just relax!
