EADGBD tuning
The EADGBD tuning is not very common, but is an interesting alternative for finding new chord possibilities.
This tuning can also be used by a beginner since many chords that normally involves three fingers only need two. The F major can also be played without barring strings.
As already disclosed by the name, to get this alternate tuning you should tune your guitar like this: E A D G B D. The re-tuning only involves one change, which is the highest (thinnest string).
More info
Including an octave perspective, the tuning is written as E2-A2-D3-G3-B3-D4, meaning the lowest string is an E note in the second octave, the second lowest string is an A note in the second octave and so on. Standard tuning reference: E2-A2-D3-G3-B3-E4.

Comments
If you prefer an easier shape for Bm7, it's also possible to play the chord as X20200 (which omits the fifth). The same thing with Bm7, you could instead play X20220.
There are also many alternatives for G chords in open positions. G7, for example, can also be played as 323000.
