RE: Morning Primer - Daily Quote #2 - Mental Diet
“No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.”
-Socrates
I think the only way the mind can perform optimally is if the body is taken care of. The two are explicitly linked. One can not succeed to its fullest potential if the other is lacking.
To take care of the body is to take care of the mind, undoubtedly, and I'm glad to see others share this perspective.
So true. I think everyone should see what their physical body is capable of achieving.
Probably the greatest strain on the health care system are diseases amplified by the sedentary lifestyles we lead. We're supposed to move, not just exercise but to play and use our bodies to manipulate our physical environment.
