CONCENTRATION

The next benefit yoga gives is it improves our

concentration abilities. In modern times we are

so much disturbed by technology and choices

that we can’t focus on one thing for more than

a few minutes. Innocent as it may seem, the

lack of concentration makes us jump from one

idea to another and doesn’t let us finish

things.

Working on concentration in balancing poses,

meditation, pranayama, Trataka (or gazing at

one point without blinking the eyes), we bring

in the focus into the other duties we perform

during the day and, certainly, become we more

efficient.
