When I’m teaching people how to meditate, I like to use analogies to help students visualize the impact and importance of this skill. For example, a question I like to ask is “if you brushed your teeth this morning, would you skip brushing your teeth tomorrow morning or the morning after that?” It’s highly unlikely.  Taking care of your teeth is essential.  It’s also a twice-daily task that needs to be done to maintain your oral health (and your physical health).  You wouldn’t usually brush your teeth once and assume you’re done for good. Why wouldn’t you engage in a daily, or twice daily, cleaning of your mind?  Your brain is your body’s control centre. It deserves your attention, perhaps more than anything else.
