Finger Focus TrailMindfulness5 minFollow your own finger with your eyes to build concentration and attention.
Steps
- Hold one finger up in front of your nose. Focus your eyes on your fingertip. Keep staring at it — don't let your eyes look anywhere else.
- Slowly move your finger to the right. Follow it with just your eyes, not your head. Keep your head still! All the way to the right. Now slowly back to the middle.
- Now move your finger to the left. Eyes follow. Head stays still. All the way left. Back to the middle.
- Move your finger up slowly. Eyes follow. Now down slowly. Back to the middle. Now make a slow circle. Your eyes have to follow the whole way around.
- Put your finger down. Blink a few times. Your eyes just did a workout! When your eyes can focus and track, your brain can focus too. You're locked in and ready to learn.
