7 Tips to Improve Awareness (7 series)
Tip 1: Meditation or Pausing
Studies by Richard Davidson, founder of Center for Healthy Minds, show that meditation produces measurable changes in the brain and body. It enables a calmer state of mind and can assist the body’s immune system to function better. Being in a calmer state allows you to notice what is going on both within and around you and respond more effectively to all types of challenging situations. Guided apps can help you get started in slowing down to a place of calm alertness or you can simply sit quietly focusing on your breathing while mentally counting at a relaxed pace. If you find this difficult at first, start slowly with as little as a three-minute block of time and increase as you get the hang of it.
