Interesting piece. I've heard similar evidence in the past about how physical exercise is "good for the mind". If the author's reasoning about the computational requirements for motion are correct though, perhaps we need to do a bit of digging into why yoga/meditation is also supposedly quite "good for the mind", and yet they are significantly less complex from a motion standpoint than things such as martial arts/dancing/sports - which don't have the same reputation. Would love to see some research done though!
