WEST HARTFORD, Conn. Take a deep breath, and get ready to workout! Today, we are working out your
mind. It s all part of this year s New England 61 Day Challenge, focusing on mind, body, and spirit. Mindfulness is a term that is used a lot, but really, meditation is the exercise, said Peter Callahan, Leadership and Engagement Director at Copper Beech Institute. So if you ve heard of meditation, it s sort of like the gym for this muscle of your mind. We work out on meditation so we can then go out into the world and be hopefully even a little bit more mindful.
