I have always wondered why doing physical work never seems to provide the same feelings of wellbeing as an equivalent amount of cardio type exercise. Maybe its the constant rhythm, or enforced mental blankness, but even a 30 min walk is much more relaxing for me than yardwork.
- Cardinal7167 4y agoI feel like yard work induces a similar amount of calmness in me. I love a good walk but I get the same feeling of centeredness and grounded mental state from mowing the lawn that I do from an equivalent length walk
- porknubbins 4y agoYeah true, mowing is a great mental break and basically just a walk. I probably ruin the relaxation with all the trimming, raking, planting, weeding etc afterwards.
- pengaru 4y agoMaybe you dislike getting dirty? Exercise is like a manual labor charade performed in a sterile environment, at most you get sweaty.
