How long can YOU concentrate?

You might of heard about the way martial art training can help kids with ADD and ADHD, so much so that there's no longer a need for them to take Ritalin or any other mind altering drugs after having started classes.

If it can do that for a kid that has an attention deficit or suffers from hyper-activity, imagine what it can do for children who don't need help in that area? It will give them an edge in all sport related activities, boost their confidence and sharpen their mind dramatically.

When we hear about ADD and ADHD, the common belief is that kids are the only ones who suffer from it right?

No.

How long can YOU concentrate?

Good Question.

"The inability to concentrate or to stay concentrated" has been popping up in my different meetings with prospective students lately.

How much more could you get done if you had total focus?

The power of focus helps you enjoy and appreciate the present moment without interruption.

It helps achieve short and long term goals.

It makes for higher quality workouts completed in less time.

Focus keeps you out of a trance state, can you imagine, many drivers on the road today can't quite recall their trip to work, as if in a daze, got distracted and drove on auto-pilot to their destination. How's that for road safety? Has that ever happened to you?

There are many things distracting us in our life. Taking the time to train your concentration & focus can save your life, helps you achieve what you want to achieve, increases awareness both physical and mental, helps you relax and express gratitude for that one thing we can't live without...

That ONE BREATH.

Not two, not three breaths at a time but ONE breath. We all take one precious breath at a time and most of us forget to pay attention to it.

That's why meditation is so good for you. It helps you just stop and realize how good it is to be alive.

If you're meditating daily (doesn't have to be very long and there exists many ways to meditate without no one ever knowing what you're really doing) stress just seems to melt away and keeps you in a constant state of happiness. You can't help but feel that way, after all, us being here is a gift and meditation reminds us of that.

Sounds interesting?

Here's a great way to get started.
