Biologically we are not evolved for sitting all day without movement. The old Mind(Brain)/Body connection with feedback loops. Note that this is independent of stresses from the Environment itself (eg. indoors with no sunlight, stressful boss/colleagues, deadlines etc.) which makes the situation even more worse.
This is what makes a lot of us Programmers prone to depression/listlessness/low energy/loss of concentration/negativity etc. I think all of us Programmers need to find something to do with our hands and force us to move around outdoors whether it be Farming or anything else; and this needs to be regular and consistent.
