Meditation can help improve concentration by relaxing both the body and mind. Simple breathing meditation techniques instruct practitioners to sit comfortably, breathe slowly through the nose, and focus on either their breathing or nothing at all. Regular meditation of 5 minutes initially, gradually increasing to 25-30 minutes per session, trains the mind and helps it focus more easily. The restless nature of human attention makes concentration difficult, but meditation provides a means to overcome this and enhance focus.
