If I really think about when I listen to my foreign language recordings, it is when I am active. Whether it be Balzac from Livraphone, I Promessi Sposi from II Narratore a Chinese story-teller narrating The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, or UCLA's Business Russian podcasts, or Don Quijote de la Mancha in Spanish, or the online content from KLEAR Korean learning material, or my recently acquired audio book of 雪国 by 川端康成, I am always doing something else while listening. Usually I am running or working out. My iPod is not waterproof so I cannot listen while I am swimming in the ocean.
I have read that language learning is good for the brain. We are all aware that there is an epidemic of obesity in the world, because people are not active enough. The solution is a total fitness program. Fitness for your body and fitness for your brain. Learn English while you exercize with The Linguist!
