Oh yea for sure. Being active goes along with a whole slew of self care practices that just makes life better all around, in everyway, especially in the wiring of the brain. If I were a scientist, I’d love to be studying the human brain. It’s fascinating.
Dude, no kidding. I used to be super athletic and I’m hoping I can go back into it after they rewire my foot but everything regarding my wellbeing fell to pieces when I first got hurt. It’s amazing the difference it makes.
It took me a lot of b.s. to finally start taking care of myself. I played sports growing up too, but fell into the grind, and alot of extremely self destruction behavior.
Once I decided to actually care for myself, it sparked a certain mindfulness in my own life and how I live it.
I started working out, playing pick up sports here and there, and gardening. I like to garden and do push ups/medicine ball etc in-between my tasks. I just feel good. I think feeling good goes a long way to being healthy, and alleviating stress, as well as the small unimportant things that tend to bother us when we are stagnant.
It’s a process and a struggle, but worth it. Sometimes I’m lazy lol. But I’m trying to keep a lid on my complacency.
Luckily I’ve been blessed with decent health ftmp, but lately I been dealing with the onset of carpal tunnel and bad knees. So there’s a balance I need to find.
