Our ancient people say and believe that ‘if we know the
divine art of concentration, if we know the divine art of meditation, if we
know the divine art of contemplation, easily and consciously we can unite the
inner world and the outer world.’ Concentration is one thing which helps an
individual to achieve what he/she is longing for. Not only human being but all
the living things in this universe have the capacity to concentrate and reach
their goal. The only difference is one’s understanding about their ability or
level of focus. Some are aware of their goals in life and some are not able to
realize or make it out.
Concentration or focus cannot be achieved in one day; we have
to develop it from early stages especially from the school days. School days
are specified because this is the stage where one will be concentrating on many
things at same time. Schools can make big difference here through applying new
methodology to help children focus on whatever they are doing. There are many
schools in India who give importance to the mental development of the students
which will facilitate them all through their life. We can take one example to
take a close look at things. There are en numbers of best schools in Bangalore but among them
some international schools in Bangalore stand ahead with their quality of
education.
Oakridge International
School in Bangalore is one among them who believe in holistic education and
provide the best atmosphere to students for their growth. Oakridge give more
importance to the overall development of its children other than mere academic
progress. They assist the children to be focused and for this purpose they have
incorporated many activities into curriculum which includes concentration and
focus. Various workshops are being conducted in the school which helps the kids
to recognize the importance and tips for sharp focus. Yoga and meditation are
part of syllabus and these two are considered to be the remedy for any focus
related concern.
But sometimes concentration issues come as part of some
illness or mental imbalance. So before seeking any remedy we need to know the
root cause and after effects. Parents also need to be alert when such symptoms
like lack of focus and concentration arise. Proper counseling and various
mental capacity developing games can be made as part of life. Puzzle games help
a lot in this matter as it interests the kids and at the same time make them
concentrate on the game for longer time. Tactics are the only possible way out
in this kind of problems than forceful studying and angry faces.
