To ponder the Quran and achieve presence of heart and humility during its recitation, the following is recommended: Sincerity to Allah, emptying the heart of worldly distractions, abstaining from sins, weeping or feigning weeping during recitation, and seeking times when the heart is most free from distractions and closest to humility, such as after Fajr prayer and the middle of the night.
