> Doing cardio.
> Suddenly all the decision you ever made in your life flash before your eyes and you question what led you here to this track, trail or bike. Scenarios of how you should have acted or will act when confronted with similar or novel situation play out in your mind and you make mental notes to remember them.
Cardio is crazy, man.

>To meditate, in other words, to isolate oneself from the current social and political issues of your own country, to get into your own bubble, to forget about [the] troubles of the world—obviously [the] KGB was very fascinated with such a beautiful school, such a brainwashing center for stupid Americans. I was dispatched by the KGB to check [into] what kind of VIP Americans attend this school.

I do meditate. Not super often, but when I've got no time, I find time to meditate.
It's not spiritual. A little silence is really healthy.
I've always thought of meditation as some new age hippy horseshit.
