- Concentration requires the focus on one object: The focus is on the breathing. You have to keep repeating the words in your mind. Concentrate, concentrate and concentrate. You have to just focus on the point you have selected and your breathing. Breathe deep and keep it going till your outer world becomes unimportant. Forget about the past and don't think about the future, be in the present and just at that moment.
- Focus harder if your concentration sways: To bring your mind to the required calmness is a difficult task, specially for people who have a restless mind. If you are unable to gain the calmness of mind, do not reprimand yourself. That would decreases your capability to concentrate further. Let the thoughts pass your mind. You are not meditating to forget yourself, so let the thoughts be. Suppressing them or tying to get rid of them can only harm your mind. Use the point of focus to gain concentration if you have been distracted by any thought.
- Ignore irrelevant thoughts and sensation during yoga meditation: Yoga meditation cannot change your world completely. Remember you are an earthly being with people around you. You will be able to hear voices and noises too, let them be, you just focus on your point. The property of distraction can be fought with a willful mind.
