Season starting guidelines for Batters

• Watch the ball harder. Look for the seam. It is the key to success in just about any situation.

• Get your head in line and stay balanced.

• Work at getting a good strong movement to the ball either back or forward. It allows you to play later and therefore watch the ball longer. Maintain a good balance.

• Play with soft hands. It will often get you out of trouble.

• Keep telling yourself to be patient. Realize the situation when it is tough, and try to settle in the crease rather than dominate the bowling.

• Specifically in games, keep looking for opportunities to break free. Bowlers & fielders get tired, and they go to sleep. Chances are consistently arising.

Season starting guidelines for Bowlers

• In tight situations, your ability to control your stock delivery is crucial. The stock ball is the ball you can bowl with the most confidence. You must do so as often as 20 or more times in a 4-over set.

• Be patient and realize that your natural variations in line and length will be challenging for the batsman. You always have a chance of getting a wicket!

• Bowl every ball through the batsman to your keeper. If the pitch is flat or not helpful for bowlers, then tight bowling will make the batsman hurry and give you every opportunity to nip them out.

• Bowl to your field. If you bowl with control, then it will limit the batsman’s scoring opportunities and encourage him to take risks.

• In general, always appear to be positive, confident, and interested in contesting the result of every contest. It is the right situation where training to use positive body language, positive talk, and positive thinking comes in handy. An individual who is doing this will be a force to be reckoned with.

• The type of fast bowler you are has more influence on the line of attack and the field placing that we have to employ. The length is more determined by the pitch, state of the ball, batter, and conditions. Your bowling line must determine the amount of lateral movement on the day. More movement means more attacking, and less movement means you force the batter to play according to your field placement. ( One side of the field )

The correct technique or posture of meditation

Asanas or body postures and positions such as padmasana (full-lotus, half-lotus), cross-legged sitting, seiza, and kneeling positions are popular in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism,[49] although other postures such as sitting, supine (lying), and standing are also used. Meditation is also sometimes done while walking, known as kinhin, while doing a simple task mindfully, known as samu, or while lying down, known as shavasana.[50][51]

Potential adverse effects and limits of meditation

Potential adverse effects and limits of meditation

Dec 1, 2023

The understanding of the potential for adverse effects in meditation is evolving. In 2014, the US government-run National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health suggested that: A 2020 review examined 83 studies (a total of 6,703 participants) and found that 55 of those studies reported negative experiences related to meditation practices. The researchers concluded that about 8 percent of participants had a negative effect from practicing meditation, which is similar to the percentage reported for psychological therapies.[142]

Another 2021 review found negative impacts in 37% of the sampled participants in mindfulness-based programmes, with lasting bad effects in 6–14% of the sample, associated with hyperarousal and dissociation.[143] Principles of informed consent require that treatment choice be based in part on the balance of benefits to harms, and therefore can only be made if harms are adequately measured and known. Meditation is not helpful if it used to avoid facing ongoing problems or emerging crises in the meditator’s life. In such situations, it may instead be helpful to apply mindful attitudes while actively engaging with current problems.

The psychological and physiological effects of meditation have been studied. In recent years, studies of meditation have increasingly involved the use of modern instruments, such as fMRI and EEG, which are able to observe brain physiology and neural activity in living subjects, either during the act of meditation itself or before and after meditation.
