I am a firm believer in the value of "mental exercise" and am thrilled to see articles like this. I agree that mental training is similar to physical training. Taking the analogy a step further, I consider meditation to be the refreshing "sleep" that the physical body gets that the mind rarely gets. Again, well done and thanks. Great posting.
