Exercises to Strengthen Mental Fortitude
Meditation and relaxation exercises
Just like using stretches and weights to strengthen physical muscles, the mind strengthens by being stretched and tested
spend time working on mental puzzles: crosswords, riddles, brainteasers
Chess is a good one; find someone to play against
Arithmancy stretches the mind; spend extra time studying it and practicing
perhaps the most important strengthening tool is to practice Occlumency against a Legilimens whenever possible
Professor Dumbledore says when I can do all of the things he's teaching me all at once, then I'll be ready. I don't know what he means by 'ready', but it all sounds rather complicated to me. Anyway, back to practicing Occlumency. He says we'll probably spend a lot of our time on that, and meditation and all the multi-tasking, and then the theory of course. He's the only Legilimens around that I can really train with, he says. So on we go then.
