The exercise answer is really tiring. It became a universal remedy
If we analyze what OP is saying we can rapidly see what he wants.
Essentially he wants a long life where he gets to delay death as much as possible, live to 100 as a very rich person so he'd avoid missing out on things , stress free, and with the minimum amount of personal tragedies.
All the amount of exercise in the world won't magically summon all the luck that it's necessary to be in the 0.000000001% who can claim to be fortunate enough to satisfy all the requirements set by OP.
When the brain wants all the above and you throw at it a 20mi run...well let's say that if the brain was a person it'd look back at you and say something like :
"Do I look like an idiot? Give me what I want , not this BS run or else I'm gonna make you miserable and no amount of running will change that"
- kleer001 5y ago> It became a universal remedy Since we're all humans with human bodies there are universal ways to better our emotional and mental lives. There's a reason there's no obese 80 year old people.
- GDC7 5y agoOP is not 80. OP has been very clear in expressing what he wants. How do you think exercise will enable him to do so? As you can see from his requests he's looking for some serious luck in 3 distinctive and uncorrelated domain (longevity, wealth and family life) not to lose weight.
- kleer001 5y agoAll 3 of OP's direct requests have to do with a negative mental state. Exercise improves that. Here's a bunch of literature. https://www.health.harvard.edu/mind-and-mood/more-evidence-that-exercise-can-boost-mood https://www.health.harvard.edu/mind-and-mood/more-evidence-t... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22933142/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22933142/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1470658/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1470658/ Regardless, exercise isn't the core method to weight loss, that's change of diet. > As you can see from his requests he's looking for some serious luck No, I disagree. OP said: >I am constantly worried that ... Op's request cannot be solved through fulfillment of their apparent presentation. Look at what is behind them. Worry is a state of mind. Even if they were fulfilled to YOUR satisfaction, worry could still exist in someone else's mind in the exact same position. Worry, OP stated, is their core problem. “Man is not worried by real problems so much as by his imagined anxieties about real problems” ― Epictetus
- GDC7 5y agoOk let's say that we cheat and operate as you say. That is not by not solving OP's problems but by eliminating his "worry" Do you think exercise is potent enough? To me you'd need psychedelics such as LSD, Salvia and DMT given the scope of the problems we have to distract him from
