To stay focused, one should learn how to shut out the senses. This is actually one of the #eightlimbsofyoga : #pratyahara , or withdrawing one’s senses. Yes our five senses (some say more 🤔) are giving us the vital information of what is going on in the world so that we can conduct ourselves safely in the elements. But they’re also a great source of distraction. Ask your this: when someone comes into a yoga room you’re in, how often do you turn your head or open your eyes to find out who’s walking in?

That’s why by learning to how disregard what the senses are telling you, you won’t be distracted by the surroundings around you will start to be able to look inwards and stay focused, preparing yourself for #dhyana (#meditation) and hopefully one day #samadhi (#selfrealization).

That’s why I like to wear headphones that can help me shut off the distractions around me such as #airpodspro for their #activenoisecancelling. So I can do #headstand for dozens of minutes. Certainly I don’t recommend using the #activenoisecancelling function while you’re crossing the roads ✌🏼

What other ways of shutting out the senses do you use so you can be more concentrated?
