Increasing your children's ability to concentrate is the main objective of all parents because it is directly related not only to their studies but also to their career. Especially nowadays, the way mobile and internet have directly interfered in every small activity of our life, it has become more important to increase the ability to concentrate in today's children. Here are some steps that can be helpful in increasing your children's ability to concentrate-
Make them aware of regular meditation
The most important thing to increase concentration is to motivate children to meditate regularly to get them out of the hustle and bustle of fast life that has filled their minds. Of course, this will not happen suddenly, but you yourself should take out time with the children and motivate them to meditate regularly. Meditation of at least 10-15 minutes per day not only calms your mind but also helps in increasing brain strength. During meditation, take deep breaths in the beginning and keep your mind completely worry-free and unaffected by the outside environment. You can inspire your children to start it as a game.
Avoid multitasking
In today's fast-paced life, not only parents but also children have been forced to multitask. You will see that even though the world has come out of the Corona era, even today their work is sent from school through mobile. Even mobile has been made an important medium of education for children and due to this children have also been forced to multitask. For this, it is important that you ask the children to complete one work at a time so that they avoid unnecessary stress and learn to complete the work in a time frame with discipline.
Limit the use of phone and social media
Not only children but all parents also cannot deny that mobile and social media have always affected our attention and concentration badly. If you visit social media yourself, you will find that depression and negative things dominate you more because it is our irony that such content is served on mobile and social media which is pushing negativity in us. You can easily guess that when these things are so harmful for parents, then they must have a bad effect on the tender minds of children. For this, it is important that you limit the use of phone and social media for children as far as possible.
Develop the habit of writing a diary
Develop the habit of writing and reading in children and also motivate them to write a diary. Tell them how time can be taken out to write a diary and what are the benefits of writing a diary. Making entries in the diary about your priorities and the things to be completed on time will help them develop a habit of writing a diary and also help them to complete their tasks on time.
Change the way of studying
Teach children to take help of some new techniques apart from the traditional methods of studying and memorizing. It is important to note here that the traditional methods of studying are not outdated even today, rather they should be presented in a new way so that children can imbibe them properly. Keep in mind that there is a difference between reading and memorizing and it is important to motivate children to understand memorizing as different from reading. It is also important to tell them that reading increases your mental clarity. Writing down what you have learned strengthens your ability to concentrate.
Adequate sleep is necessary
Nowadays children stay awake till late night due to the busy schedule of their parents and the excess of work at home and office. Due to the burden of office and extra household chores, parents are forced to stay awake till late at night, but it is important for children to have adequate sleep. For this, it is important that you keep children away from your routine and ensure that they go to sleep on time. Due to lack of adequate sleep, children may also have to face problems like insomnia and mental depression.
