Work out

"When we talk about physical health, we know we have to work out our body. But we have almost never thought that working out our mind and heart is also essential to our mental and psychological health. And that is exactly what meditation is about. Stretch your mind. Strengthen your heart. Loosen up your soul. The goal is long-term stability, peace and immunity to adverse external environments. An athlete's bones don't break that easily when they fall. Similarly, a yogi's heart does not break that easily when he fails. The key is to practice. Work out. Persistently. Diligently. Persistently. Diligently."
