Die momenten dat je naar je scherm staart, terwijl er niets uit je handen komt. Situaties waarin je al drie keer diezelfde zin gelezen hebt waarbij het maar niet tot je doordringt wat er nu eigenlijk staat. Niet omdat de zin zo ingewikkeld is. Ook niet omdat je die nacht niet lekker geslapen hebt of die dag jouw ontbijt of lunch overgeslagen hebt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nee, ik doel op die momenten dat je bewust of onbewust onder druk staat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Impact of Stress on Concentrating<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What moments might these be?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of situations, for example, when you are distracted by what is happening around you. Maybe it\u2019s too loud or too quiet to concentrate. Or maybe, because your head is full of other thoughts. Worries or reflections on what didn&#8217;t go well, what you still have to do, or what might happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Situations where your amygdala sends a stress signal to your hypothalamus, which reacts by warning your adrenal glands that you are under pressure. That message causes your adrenal glands to respond by releasing adrenaline into your bloodstream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But while a good dose of adrenaline helps you focus better, too much leads to excess arousal, making it much harder for you to focus and perform effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Getting your Head Back in the Game<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s why &#8216;Being unable to concentrate&#8217; is one of the 55 cards in our\/my Coach Card set: <a href=\"https:\/\/sphereofinfluence360.com\/nl\/store\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Stress! Herken jij de signalen?<\/strong><\/a> It may not apply to you at all, it may only apply to you sometimes, or it may be completely to you personally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you or someone you know finds it hard to concentrate under pressure, how do you get back on track?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, I have searched for tips and workouts to help you get focused back on work \u2013 and that eventually got a little out of hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While I had planned to give you 3 tips, I came across so many great exercises that this time, 3 tips have become 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ten Tips to Refocus your Brain<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The exercises and workouts below will help you when you have trouble focusing. The first two exercises will help you free your mind, while exercises 3 to 8 are Concentration Workouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During a Concentration Workout, you entirely devote your attention to an activity for a set period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#7e3191\"><strong>1. Take a Brain Break<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We all need a break now and then. An easy and fun way to do this is with a 30-second dance party. It is as simple as picking a song and dancing it out for a bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting up and moving around is a great way to get oxygen to your brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After getting your groove on for half a minute, you\u2019ll be surprised by how much easier it is to refocus on the task at hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#7e3191\"><strong>2. Do a Brain Dump<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This exercise helps you de-clutter from your mind and place it all outside yourself \u2013 a simple free association process of dumping anything and everything in your mind onto paper. All the thoughts that make your attention drift; stressors, frustrations, nagging thoughts, annoyances, irritations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simply:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Grab a pen and paper, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Write down every thought that comes to your head.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s no right or wrong way to do this exercise; write until you feel like there\u2019s less pressure inside of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you are finished, you\u2019ll be ready to refocus on the task at hand!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#7e3191\"><strong>3. Counting Backward<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>For this concentration workout, count in your mind from one hundred to one, skipping every three numbers. So 100, 97, 94, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This exercise helps you clear your head of everything else for a few minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It requires persistence and different skills, which could include visualizing the numbers as you count.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#7e3191\"><strong>4. Spelling Backward<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Spelling words backward is an excellent way to focus \u2013 set a 3-5 minute timer for this exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We encourage you to start with words that are easy, like sun, yes, dog, cup, book, or joy. After that, try building up to longer words. To find words, you can look around the room and pick any objects around you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#7e3191\"><strong>5. Do Not Blink<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This exercise is perfect when you only have a few minutes to spare. You can do this exercise any time, anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure you\u2019re in a comfortable position, with a peaceful view like a blank wall or the view outside your window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Then set a timer for 3 to 5 minutes, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Try to blink as little as possible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#7e3191\"><strong>6. Focus On a Word<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Devote your attention to a word in this concentration workout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Choose an inspiring word, phrase, or even a simple sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Positive words are great examples, like <em>excellent, beautiful, effortless, freedom, happy, love, optimistic,<\/em> of <em>safety<\/em>. Pick a word that has positive connotations for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Set a timer for 2 or 3 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>During that time, repeat your chosen word silently in your mind.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#7e3191\"><strong>7. Candy Workout<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This concentration workout is not as easy as it seems. It is tasty, though!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We ask you to suck on a lollipop or hard candy until it&#8217;s gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While you\u2019re at it, could you resist the urge to bite into it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We encourage you to pay attention to the flavor, the sensation of the candy on your tongue, and how long it takes to finish it completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#7e3191\"><strong>8. Examine Some Fruit<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Take an apple, orange, banana, or any other fruit, and hold it in your hands. Start by looking at the fruit and examining it for about 2 minutes. Examine it from all its sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Notice its shape, smell, taste, and the sensation it gives you when you touch it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Put it aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, close your eyes, and try to see, smell, taste, and touch the fruit in your imagination. Try to create a clear, well-defined image. If the image becomes blurred, open your eyes and look at the fruit for a moment before closing them to continue with the exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#7e3191\"><strong>9. Opening and Closing your Fist<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This concentration workout is a monotonous activity, which can be an effective way to train your attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Move your chair up to a table.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Place one hand on it, keeping the back of your hand on the table. Clench your fist, with your thumb doubled over your fingers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now, fix your gaze upon your fist for a while.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then gradually extend your thumb, with all your focus on the action as if it\u2019s a matter of great importance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then gradually extend your first finger, then your second, and so on until you open the rest.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When you are done, reverse the process, first closing the last finger you opened and then the rest until finally, your fist is once again in its original position with your thumb closed over your finger.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat this exercise five times for each hand.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#7e3191\"><strong>10. Follow the Second Hand of a Clock<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This concentration workout requires some willpower, as there\u2019s very little interesting about the second hand of a clock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sit in a chair and place a clock with a second hand in front of you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Follow the second hand with your eyes as it goes around, starting when it\u2019s at 12, and focusing intently on its progress around the clock face. Every time your concentration breaks, wait until the second hand is at 12 again and start again.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep this up for three minutes, thinking of nothing else but the second hand.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After doing one of these workouts or exercises, it might be interesting to evaluate how it has impacted your ability to concentrate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe the effect wasn&#8217;t that big \u2013 if that\u2019s the case, it might not be the proper exercise for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If, however, it had a positive impact on your wandering mind, it might be helpful to use it the next time your attention drifts away from the task at hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color:#e94677\"><strong>Enjoy!<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you recognize them?
