Today, Meditation has become a major topic that everyone pay their attention. Developers always look for their improvement. This article will show you what meditation is and how meditation helps developers.

What Is Meditation ?

Meditation is a practice originated in Asia. It was used initially practiced by Buddhist Monks for their journey to enlightenment. But now it is widely spread over the world. Nonetheless, Meditation is a technique for training your mind as exercises for fitness training your body. Meditation is not just for monks and hippies. It is for all of us. Mediation plays a major role in training minds though it was mostly used by monks for ages.

“Meditation is a process of lightening up, of trusting the basic goodness of what we have and who we are, and of realizing that any wisdom that exists, exists in what we already have. We can lead our life so as to become more awake to who we are and what we’re doing rather than trying to improve or change or get rid of who we are or what we’re doing. The key is to wake up, to become more alert, more inquisitive and curious about ourselves.” – Pema Chodron

How Meditation Helps Developers

There are several factors that developers concern about.

1.Concentration
2.Productivity
3.Zero Stress Levels

Concentration

Concentration is a important factor for developers as they are working with their brain. Once they lose concentration, it will be a mess. Concentrating on a specific thing is not that easy. That is where meditation helps:Concentration Meditation.

Concentration meditation is focusing on something for a period of time you choose for meditation. This entails following breathe, chanting a single word: manthra, counting beads of a neckless/mala calmly, staring at a candle flame, listening only to a repetitive Gong and staring at any object you like. As focusing/ concentrating the mind is challenging, beginners might meditate for minutes and continue meditating for hours. Although concentrating is challenging, once you practice, you will love it! In concentration meditation, you have to continuously focus on an object or anything you choose. As your mind tries to get away from it, you have to refocus on your chosen object/sound. Unwanted thoughts might come into your mind; you have to let them go away, do not grant permission them to meet your conscious/subconscious mind. Do not let your mind meander. You might fail - that is okay. Start again and this incessant procedure improves your ability of concentration.

You can meditate wherever you are. You can meditate anywhere, when you feel that you are getting distracted and feel stressed, try Meditation. You can definitely concentrate yourself through it. It does not matter whether you are standing, sitting, walking and sleeping.
