Hi Donna, So glad that you are "on track again."  Your past yoga and meditation experience are most probably a great help and your responsiveness to all in our communities undoubtedly helps. Keep up the great work! Rijuta Creative Concentration Community

Hi Rijuta, This topic and exercise are very helpful. Funny thing though....I do practice yoga and meditation however not as disciplined as I should though. See I was very very strict with my practice at one time but recently I fell away from it ( not totally but I had some personal things that just sidetracked me) Although that is one of the things yoga and meditation are suppose to help us with ..haha To be able to handle life and all its ups and downs in a very ummm well.. I guess you would say.. " accepting manner' Knowing ..everything comes to pass and everything happens for a reason.. So the reason i tell you all this is because...I believe practicing yoga and meditation help support what you state here..about concentration. So I do understand and know what needs to be learned and part of everyday life ..I just fell by the way side..but am on track now again due to my own realization ..and also a little help from my creative concentration friend .. I just love your community ..It is truly very helpful...informative..active and unified. Thanks again Angeliis Hi Krista (kdmarkstrom), I admire you for going back to college for your degree(s) after the age of 50!!!  Also happy that you are having such a wonderful experience in your 'life classroom' and learning to 'focus on the world -- micro and macro'. It is indeed helpful, as you so beautifully illustrate for us, to use every life experience as a learning experience! Gratitude, Rijuta Soul-Power Community

Dear Rijuta, I am 54 and have been back in college for the past two years finishing up an undergrad degree. Hopefully after this, I will be obtaining a masters degree -- work-related, and a doctorate that will be for me because it is something I've dreamed of for many yeas. Being back in school has required amazing amounts of focus and concentration. I attend a small liberal arts community that is still by day a women's college, although adult learners are able to attend classes with the days students. I am considered an adult continuing ed learner :D What this has done for me is to focus on the world -- micro and macro -- at large. There have been many obstacles and sadnesses over the past two years. Focusing on school has actually brought me to a point of being able to let go of worry, sadness, anxiety, fear, control. As you say, it is very important to focus on a single point -- something small. However, having something to focus on outside of one's pre-established worldviews makes for a really great large focus! And, it's quite awesome to be surrounded by such strong, thought-filled and thoughtful young women! peace, kdmarkstrom

Happy that the exercise worked for you Sheila! You are most welcome. I am applauding the quiet of your mind. Rijuta Soul-Power Community

Thank you I found the excerise very helpful. It worked for me . I found it great to quiet my mind . thank you again. Hi Stephanie, the Archer!  The Archer, or the person pointing the arrow, is also what I identify with. That way I feel more involved with the energy of the arrow. Great Stephanie! Rijuta Soul-Power Community

Hi Billie, You are welcome! So happy that you were helped to focus. Sometimes all it takes to make a difference is extra energy pointed in one direction. Rijuta Soul-Power Community

Thanks Rijuta, As I read the article I envisioned the tip of the arrow, and how so many times I start out focused and sharp, just like the tip of arrow. Instead of concentrating on an object for the exercise, I'm more intrigued with the fact that I'm the Archer. For a very long time I've not been the Archer in my life. Good Food.......thanks Stephanie

Thank You You have helped me focus,I am truly grateful for your help. Iam healing! Dear Debra, Thank you for your archery story. But now, dear Debra, your negative chatter has diminished. You are more perfectly Honoring Your Truth and at the same time, inspiring others to honor their truth. Way to go girl! Thank you for your always loving comments. Rijuta Soul-Power Community

You are a dear! my first thought was remembering when I got an an archery set for Christmas.....me and my sisters would play with them in the backyard. I remember way back then saying to myself I couldnt do it.......way back then.....the negative chatter was already in place....interesting. my second thought was how focusing on the breath clears that chatter....calms me....brings me back to the heart rather than the head. Always great to read your posts...they are very healing! Much Love, Debra Honor Your Truth

Hi Marion, So happy that you felt the exercise helped you to clear your mind and to feel peace and joy. As a Social Worker, perhaps you can do this exercise after you finish with each 'client'. Much peace to you, Rijuta Soul-Power Community

Hi Rujuta, After being off color for the last couple of days, it was a joy to do the exercise, it assisted in clearing my mind of all negative influences, and I could feel peace and joy envelope me. Thank you for this invaluable tip. love and god bless. Marion Great June! Is it really a coincidence? Would love to see your drawing when completed! Gratitude, Rijuta Soul-Power Community
