AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

My class teacher says I need to increase my concentration, how can I do that🙃 ?

Concentration involves three things, – Awareness, observation, sustained attention.

Our awareness is diminished if we are tired, poor diet and poor sleep. Observation is affected by interest in the object. Attention is affected by restlessness.

So to increase concentration we must ensure good health. We should be well rested and ensure good and timely sleep. Secondly, we should take interest in the subject or cultivate interest in it. For restlessness practice few minutes of peace meditation and deep relaxation with music.

Besides try to do everything with concentration. Some games that will help in developing concentration are Mikado, Carrom, Racket games.

Try these sincerely and concentration will develop.

Affectionately,

Alok Da
