Recently while sitting in a physician’s waiting room, I picked up an issue of Newsweek magazine.  The cover story was an article written by Sharon Begley about the things we can do to make our brains work better.  The article covered the gamut of subjects like what vitamins, foods, drugs and mental exercises might possibly enhance the effectiveness of our brains.  Then the article concluded by stating that there were two things that really made a big difference.  The first was regular exercise—the equivalent of walking 45 minutes three times a week.  The second was meditation.  Both of these things are relatively pleasant and fairly easy to do plus they have a positively impact on our overall physical health as well as our attitude.  In addition, you can probably do both these activities at the same time.  And, the really good news is that both of these activities are free.
