Health Benefits of Meditation

Extend Attention Span

Focused-attention meditation techniques are quite similar to weight lifting for attention span. They are useful in improving the endurance and strength of your attention. After a few weeks of practicing, you can maintain and reorient your focus much better, as well as stay concentrated longer. As a result, it is much easier to remember task retails and information, thus boosting efficiency and performance at work or study. Some studies even show that meditation would reverse brain patterns that would lead to poor, worrying, and mind-wandering attention. [4]
