Neuroscientist says this surprising hack can help you instantly focus - and it's not what you think
Briefly

Friederike Fabritius, author of "The Brain-Friendly Workplace," emphasizes that consistently listening to Bach's Goldberg Variations helps her achieve focus. This classical piece acts as a trigger, conditioning her brain for productivity. While Dr. Erin Hannon confirms that classical music aids concentration, she suggests that individuals may respond differently to music, as not everyone finds the same genre effective. The article highlights research indicating that listening to music while studying can increase task completion and productivity, underscoring the personalized nature of music's impact on focus.
"When I have to focus, I always listen to [that] same song and I instantly get into flow," Fabritius told Parade in a recent interview.
"You can actually condition your brain to get into flow and focus by always listening to the same music when you want to focus."
Hannon told Parade that she recommends music with a 'slow to moderate tempo, with moderately predictable pitch and rhythmic structure...the less chaotic the tune, the easier it is to stay on task."
