I go walking every day, and they're STILL underrated in my mind.

I keep forgetting that it's not just about fresh air.

It helps with muscles, it helps with emotions, it helps with creativity...

This reminds me of Aristotle's views on work, relaxation, and leisure. Leisure being engaging in activity solely for the virtue of pursuing it. That's where happiness, satisfaction, and a flow state can be achieved. But it first requires a separation from work. Either a discrete break, or a transition from work to relaxation to leisure, to allow for a virtuous flow state and enjoyment in the process to be experienced. I don't believe that being "wide open" all day everyday is sustainable, or even desirable. Maybe I am a bit of a bum anymore, but I like to take the time to enjoy the world. Not so much hitting goals, as living in the process. And that takes a little disconnect now and again.
