Approaches used in Mindfulness meditation

1️⃣ Focused attention

• It stresses concentrating on a single object, such as breathing, and ignoring other stimuli. 
• It is strongly related to convergent thinking, which is important for narrowing options and formulating a workable solution.

2️⃣ Open-monitoring

• It involves observing and noting phenomena in the present moment and keeping attention flexible and unrestricted.
• It's far more effective in stimulating divergent thinking, a key driver of creativity
