Physical exercise and depression.
Re: Physical exercise and depression.
Today i was in some neurophisiological conferention, and scientific that was here said that sport is helpfull with depression, but endorphines (that make us feel pleasure, and by this, help with depression) are produced by organism only after a very fast sprint, or a long intence physical exercice.

Exercise sucks - it induces pain - pain is dukkha.

It's like meditation. You have to do it long enough consistently and in the right way to see results.retrofuturist wrote:Greetings Daniel,

Re: Physical exercise and depression.
Greetings Daniel,
Funny then - I'm normal BMI, do negligible exercise, and feel just fine. Never felt better.
If this were a universally true means to alleviate depression and suffering (e.g. aerobic exercise, resistance training) then don't you think the Buddha might have thought to teach such things? In the Dhamma, they are conspicuous by their absence.
Again, see the link in the original post and see if what you're saying fully reconciles with it. If not, one or the other is in error.

Re: Physical exercise and depression.
Surgery also causes pain. On a personal level, while exercise can be quite blissful (anandamides and all that) and the subsequent sense of well-being of having a body that that has stamina and a sense of health is nothing to sniff at, either. But experiences vary.retrofuturist wrote:Greetings,

The main shortcoming with the exercise movement is that it is intoxication with youth, beauty, and health, and that's where I as a Buddhist religionist start pouring in the grains of salt.
