It's Time to Get Moving (Vigorously)
Have you ever been sitting on the couch, rifling a bag of jalapeno-flavored, kettle-cooked potato chips into your mouth, while binge-watching the hilarious hijinks of Michael Scott? Let’s be honest, we have all been there. And that is okay. However, once the screen goes black for a few moments, you catch a glimpse of yourself in the dark reflection and you think, “Man, I need to start working out again.” Again, it happens to the best of us. Starting (or even restarting) a training regimen is one of the hardest things you can do.

I Tried Muse: The Brain Sensing Headband and Here's What Happened
I'll be the first person to admit—I've never been much of a "mindfulness" type of guy. For me, the world of meditation, yoga, and the overall "strengthening of the mind" were pretty foreign concepts.
