Educators can roll both together. Many of us find nothing more relaxing that burying ourselves in a good book: what could be more mindful than this? At the same time I start with my day with the New York Times Puzzles* to turn my brain on and maths has the same effect. We write for Medium because it is incredibly cathartic to get ideas out of our heads.

*Mainly Wordle and the Mini Crossword over my morning tea. I actually want to make it to work on time!
