Want to focus better? Try breathing....

New research explains for the first time the scientific connection between breathing and attention. It all comes down to the brain chemical called noradrenaline, which is released when we're challenged, curious, focused, or emotionally engaged. Breathing affects levels of noradrenaline, which, if produced at the right levels, helps the brain grow new connections. The researchers speculate that both mindful breathing and other types of breathing  exercises can improve our attention and brain health. 
Here's a sample of each.
Mindful breathing. Sit comfortable with your spine straight and your eyes closed. As you settle into your body, notice how you feel and relax any areas of tension. Breath normally, and place your attention on your breath without trying to change or control it. Notice where in your body you feel your breathing most clearly and let your attention rest there. When your mind wanders to thoughts or feelings, gently guide your attention back to your breathing.
Belly breathing. Sit in a comfortable position with your back straight. Place one hand on your belly button. Take a deep breath in through your nose, causing the hand on your belly to move outward. Exhale through your mouth (or nose). The hand on your belly should move inward. Continue to breathe deeply, in through the nose and out through the mouth (or nose), causing your belly button to move out and in.
