Though training your brain is as important as training your body, most people don’t recognize this. Just as you get faster by running three miles a day or get stronger by lifting weights, you can become more mindful by practicing meditation. Often we refer to meditation practice as “building your mindfulness muscle.” Most young adults are willing to devote hours a week to working toward fitter, more attractive bodies. Might it be worth putting in some time to develop a fitter mind as well?
