Qi Gong for better concentration

With the concentration it's one of those things. Just when we need it the most, it fades away and leaves us tired. After 30-60 minutes, we have difficulty concentrating and need a break. More precisely, the brain needs rest and variety, otherwise the information can no longer be properly grasped. Thinking slips away to less demanding things like checking the news on the cell phone.

Consciously taking breaks after about 45 minutes would be ideal, so it is generally recommended. If you want to increase your ability to concentrate in principle, there are several ways to do this. From the eastern culture we know many traditional methods by which one can reach a higher concentration ability. Meditation is one of the best known. In complete silence, one practices to focus only on one thing, such as the breath. At the beginning this is hardly successful, but in the course of time the periods of time in which one does not drift off become larger and larger.

A meditation in movement is Qi Gong. This eastern art of movement also offers the possibility of focusing energy and practicing attention. It is generally accepted that energy is always there where we focus our attention. That is, if we want to direct our energy to a certain thing, it is important to bring our attention there. This must be trained. 

Qi Gong offers the opportunity for this. In order to learn to perform movements in a conscious and coordinated way, we have to concentrate. It is about feeling how the individual body parts move. What are the hands and feet doing? Where is there more weight? On the left or right foot? Can I feel how I breathe into my belly and let go when I exhale? To trace all these questions helps to strengthen one's own ability to concentrate.
