Researchers link Buddhist meditation to improved concentration

Researchers at the University of California at Davis think that meditation could be the key to improving your attention span.

They conducted a three-month-long study to test how Buddhist meditation affects a person's  focus and attention to detail.

As the testing process progressed, the participants level of concentration improved while they meditating. 

Researchers say they found that participants who kept up with the meditation following the test kept a level of concentration equal to their original test period.
