Dear reader,
Physical exercise strengthens your mind.
Who’d have thought it!
I bet you thought that working out was just for your body, to be honest, I thought that for a long time too.
When I’d hit the gym, back in the days when I was at my fittest, I’d smash a workout and feel great. I’d feel on top of the world.
But I never correlated exercising with the clarity of my mind - I guess that’s because I used to binge drink at weekends!
However, without booze in the equation this time around, my head is feeling great.
Today, it was upper body workout time and a welcomed break from working on my legs!
The feeling afterwards was that of exhaustion but of clear-minded clarity. I felt invincible - still do. I feel like I can take on the world if I continue on this path.
This is an amazing feeling considering that my mental health is something that has felt so fragile for a long time.
Maybe you can relate.
The world
The world is a weird place right now.
There are so many things going on. From Covid to vaccines, to riots and lockdowns. It’s a mental head fuck!
This is why it’s imperative to look after yourself.
You need to be strong, fit and healthy. Not just physically but also mentally and emotionally.
You don’t want to neglect your own personal health especially if you have a family to look after.
You don’t want to neglect the temple which houses your soul.
“Don’t let the bastards grind you down!”
For some reason, that quote popped into my head and I think it is relevant to the current situation.
You see, however you feel about what is going on right now, you need to focus on yourself first and not let government decisions affect your mission to become the best you can be - in all aspects of your health, wellbeing and life in general.
I know we’re meant to be saving Grandma but if you’re not physical, mentally and emotionally strong enough then you’re not going to be saving anyone.
You need to prioritise your fitness and work on your body. Your fitness will take care of your mind. And your mind will help with your emotions.
It’s really that simple.
If you want to get fit and healthy - physically, emotionally and mentally - then it’s time to get to work:
Thank you for reading “Physical Exercise Strengthens Your Mind”.
Take care,
Roscoe
