That's true, though for myself I find that in order to concentrate on something mentally engaging I need to be physically occupied. So walking, simple chores, some types of exercise, knitting, mindlessly guitar practice. It's when I don't have something mindless to do with my hands that my mind actually ends up wandering.
Multi-tasking is a fallacy. It's not possible to do anything that requires a reasonable amount of concentration with mindfulness and quality if you're also trying to do something else at the same time. To try multi-task is to short change yourself of truly deep and engaging experiences.
