Have trouble paying attention, try meditating.

When visual signals are shown in rapid progression, the brain spends too much time and energy on the first cue, often missing the second completely.

Researchers found taking three months of meditation classes helped patients pick up on signals that were missed by those who did not learn the practice.

Experts say the study shows meditation may have lasting changes on the brain, teaching it to focus on tasks at hand.

Meditating is very good... I am a father of 4 on one on the way... My so called wife can be in a bad mood quite often... We do it as a family with the kids at times when we have a huge dispute.. I think that it should be known to all the people in the public community areas.. I think it could change families friends and even the way we think at times too.. If more people knew about it I think our communities would change.. Maybe we wouldn't have so much crime and abuse.. Even not to be worried about our children at school.. we all have to be one... I get my friends tell them and they share with me and together we can we meditate.. Yes there may be people who laugh and make fun of it so do it alone... it even helps tempers take a deep breath and meditate it helped our marriage and even with our childrens behaviors... Thank you experts... God Bless You all!!!!
