Exercise and the brain

Summary:

Interview with the author of the book: Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain, 

Exercise improves mood, your ability to learn, lessens symptoms of ADHD and anxiety, and more.

Aerobic exercise can actually promote neurogenesis – the actual birth of new nerve cells. Previously, it was believed that we entered adolescence with all the nerve cells we’d ever have, and from there they’d slowly but surely die off without being replaced.

Scientists have also discovered that exercise regulates and optimizes levels of neurotransmitters such as noeprinephrine, dopamine, and seratonin, all of which play key roles in your brain’s ability to pay attention, stay motivated, and learn effectively.

Exercise has many other wide-ranging effects in the brain, and has been shown to be beneficial for people with a range of conditions – from chronic anxiety and depression to ADHD. It also helps us age more gracefully, and prevents the onset of diseases like Alzheimer’s.

it's honestly a bit odd to me that so many people have jumped on the 'aziraphale will be pulling all the strings and playing politics in heaven' train. like I think it's true that the metatron is underestimating aziraphale's intelligence and ability to disrupt the second coming even while separated from crowley, but I also think the idea that aziraphale is going up to heaven with a clear idea of how he's just been lied to, an understanding of how much danger he's in, and a plan to stop it is a huge reach.

frankly, aziraphale is very vulnerable to manipulation. I'm thinking now of neil’s post with the diary entry from before the edinburgh minisode where he was duped by two humans, the whole thing with the nazis in 1941, and his sponsorship of shadwell's various obviously fake agents (sergeant milkbottle, etc.). he's not nearly as savvy as fanon tends to portray him. he takes people at face value, especially people he thinks of as Good. (that's not a dunk, btw--I find these things endearing, and a sign of aziraphale's innate wish to see the best in people. I just think that sometimes the BAMF protective aziraphale of fanon overshadows the slightly more naive aziraphale of canon. and honestly, I also think TV aziraphale is just a bit softer than book aziraphale, though he is capable of stepping up when it counts.)

and he's a bad liar! I know it's a meme in the fandom that aziraphale lies all the time, but he doesn't like it, and he's bad at it. he gets nervous and comes up with terrible excuses and the only reason he ever gets away with it is because the people he's lying to are idiots (gabriel), have their own agendas (god, the other archangels), or trust him to be honest (crowley).

aziraphale's real strength is his ability to take sudden, completely unexpected action. that's one of the things that crowley admires most about him. "he's unpredictable," is what he says to nina, and it's true! aziraphale's greatest moments of rebellion have always come from spur of the moment decisions, not intricate plans. (if anything, crowley is the planner--the arrangement and the thwarting of the apocalypse, their two longest cons, were both his idea.)

aziraphale gives the sword away because when he is forced to make a decision under pressure, he tends to land on the side of rebellious kindness. shielding crowley from the rain in eden, lying to gabriel to protect job's family, defying the quartermaster and returning to earth via possession during the apocalypse, blowing up his halo--he does these things because he's following that same impulse. when aziraphale has time to over think, he frets and fusses and is paralyzed by indecision. (or worse, he falls back on what heaven has taught him.)

TL;DR: I don't think aziraphale has any sort of grand plan other than a generalized "make things better," and I certainly don't think he is planning to betray heaven. he might try to come up with a plan once he figures out how bad things are going to get, but my bet is that what will actually disrupt the second coming is an absolutely bonkers off the wall decision that no one, crowley included, could ever predict. and I think it’ll happen, as it usually does with aziraphale, just after he accepts a difficult truth that fundamentally shifts his worldview—in this case, his final rejection of the idea of “good” and “bad” people, and of the entire morality system of heaven and hell.

#good omens #good omens 2 #good omens meta #final fifteen #aziraphale #long post #been in a meta mood lately sorry #to be clear people can write whatever they want. playing with characterization is fine and good in fanworks #but also I do wonder if the fanon built over four years between seasons is seriously impacting the way people read the final fifteen #and because I suspect it will come up: his smile in the elevator reads as Aziraphale’s denial smile #the one where he plasters it on as a ‘this is fine this is what I want I am a Good Angel’ reaction #‘I’m not trapped in here with you you’re trapped in here with me’ is not a thought aziraphale would ever have about himself #he doesn’t think about himself that way #crowley thinks of him as a force to be reckoned with for sure. but aziraphale is not that sure of himself

Kate: Did you ever think your life as a hired assassin would come to an end because you tossed a girl off a building?

Yelena: (with a coy grin) Not until we made eye contact… then that's precisely how I thought it'd go.

#bishova #incorrect marvel quotes #i like to think meeting kate changed the trajectory of yelena’s path #still a deadly widow only now on the right side #there you see her standing there across the roof #she don't got a lot to say but there's something about the way she points that arrow #and you don't know why but you're dying to try you wanna kiss the girl... after killing her mentor #yes you want her look at her you know you do #possible she wants you too there is one way to ask her #it don't take a word not a single word go on and break into her place #now's your moment standing in an elevator #girl you better do it soon no time will be better #she don't say a word and she won't say a word but she will slap the shit out of you #shalalalalala don't be scared you got the mood prepared go on and slam her into glass doors #shalalalalala don't stop now don't try and hide it now she wants to grab some drinks #this has fanfic written all over it so go on and kiss the girl #bishlova #yelena belova #kate bishop #hawkeye #black widow #funny #crack #incorrect quotes #marvel incorrect quotes #bishova incorrect quotes #bishlova incorrect quotes #yelena belova incorrect quotes #kate bishop incorrect quotes #inspo: chuck

flowers for you 💐

Oh? For me?

These flowers are in fair condition... And you went through all that effort to put it into a bouquet.

If you're handing this to me, then I will take it. I'll be sure to place these somewhere they'll get the most amount of sunlight so they stay fresh.

#elevator hitch #normal guy #normal guy elevator hitch #studio investigrave #normal guy rizz LMFAOOO okay i was clearly NOT in the writing mood to write normal guy properly but you got your flower normal guy!! #at least i think it's slightly out of character.

wondering if there's a character who HASN'T done the Do in heels. ????

#absolutely this thought came up bc i saw shadow lineage yakumo bang eiden while holding him up against the rocks #i looked down and saw yakumo was wearing heels!? for the first time?? #ah. no wonder he was extra tall this time #i was saying to myself... how? doesn't it hurt your legs? GEEZ yokai heel wearing abilities are something else #i find heels extraordinarily painful. idk if it's the untrained calf muscles or what #so i had to sit in admiration and awe for a bit. wow! look at him go! #then i wondered... have ALL of them accomplished this impossible (for me) feat? #Quincy would never ? probably?? #is it because they're impractical? not great for traversing rough terrain? #idk i'll let the quincy experts weigh in #but i started listing off the characters who HAVE done the do flawlessly in those painful shoes #edmond naturally. kuya of course. maid blade. #i haven't unlocked enough rooms to know #does garu wear heels? would he hate them? would he wear them and be completely unbothered bc his calves are the most powerful of all time? #DOES EIDEN EVER WEAR HEELS? #eiden in stilettos when??? #i am torn between eiden beautifully strutting around with the confidence of a drag queen #and eiden tripping after a single step on slightly elevated heels #he can do both. depending on his mood #and depending on who's nearby to conveniently catch him if he were to fall oh so dramatically

I arrived almost 12 hours ago, I've had two stupidly filling typical French meals, I've done too many loads of laundry than I'd like to admit because dryer, I've been spoiled with and am spoiling myself with coffee, my stress is diminishing, I got to read some great meta, and I'm chilling with Mara (who has numerous sleeping spots involving fuzzy blankets in this temporary repose, one of which being the fluffiest nest ever) while listening to and jamming out to Hugh Laurie leading the show in my ear. In other words, while yesterday was a time, I'm having a pretty darn nice time right now, because even if my back aches, my wrists are happier. Let's see if I can get any writing done on these 4/(5?) hours of sleep I've gotten in the last 48 hours, cause I'm pretty hype.

#[ ooc. ] don't try to make it logical or edit your soul according to the fashion. rather; follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly. #[ i miss using rdj; he used to be my ooc vibe/mood and it still rings true on some level. ] #[ but using the man still now on a kafka blog is odd; but then again-- y'know. ] #[ any way i also realize i make this seem as if i traveled 8 hours or something. i didn't-- i moved 10 mins away or so. /but/. ] #[ i lived in an apartment building where i had to walk up 5 flights of stairs to get to my apartment. and i don't have magnificent lungs. ] #[ so it was always a time. so the move today was /very/ tiring because of how often we had to go up and down those damn things. ] #[ is an elevator a necessity if i'm higher than the like 2nd or 3rd floor? yes. thankfully most have them. ] #[ god. the 'relocation' has actually done miracles for my headspace already. even if i have so much to do ahead of me. ] #[ but i decided i get a few days of repose. so here we go. let's see how long my eyes stay awake for. ]

I'm walking. Fast. The world is tilted. There's green peaking up from flat gray. Short, stubby moss. Like an ooze. Like the sidewalk is compressing it sideways. Persistent even in a concrete jungle. This little thing. This tiny thing. Reaching up toward the sun from under trampling feet. Toward a distant star. And I'm walking, but I'm light through a prism. Splitting seven different directions. A billion and a billion and a billion years brought this tiny crumpled organism to the crushing weight of my foot. And I want to scream and I want to run and I want to cry. Because it's beautiful and I'm worried I'm the only one who sees it. I'm worried it'll burn through me. I'm worried that when I walk this path for my hundred thousandth time, I won't see it like I did this first time. That my world will fall to ash again and I won't see the moss growing up between the seams in the sidewalk.

#cringe writing. bc in my grant writing class we switched to public outreach. so i have to write a thing that will go on the radio #and its better if u add a personal component. the lady gave us a prompt: take a memory of being out in nature and write like u love it. #like u hate it and write it nutral. we only had ten min. and for some reason i was like. hm i will write #abt one of my 1st times walking to this building and i saw some moss. maybe not a typical out in nature memory #but for some reason it came to mind. bc my mood was a lil elevated so i was like a lil insane. i think thats when i went out onto my deck #and was like weeping like i see the clouds and the sunbeams and they feel like angels lol #idk wtf im gonna write for the radio tho. like i just wanna talk abt algae but i dont wanna do it infomative. which is the intention. i #just want vibes. like who cares if it relates to ur life. appreciate the green goo. its cool as fuck #idk. its only 9.30 and im sweepy. im back to being knocked tf out at night after my medication dosage went up lol #maybe itll stop my world from returning to ash. hopefully #idk my tatto0 is fucking itchy >:'[ #unrelated
