For your viewing pleasure.
A couple of weeks ago, I (Colin) had a random thought: How come we never talk about physical health on Sacred Symbols+? At first blush, such a proclamation sounds peculiar. This is a PlayStation podcast after all. But the reality is, we talk about mental health all the god-damn time, and for good reason. So why do we balk at the other half of the yin-and-yang body-and-mind relationship? Thus, I emailed Cog of Defining Duke fame, since I know he has a passion for health and wellness. Now, I wouldn't call what I have a 'passion,' no, but I do care about it. I exercise vociferously virtually every day, and intermittently fast as a fact of life, day-in and day-out. I do it because I want to at least try to be healthy, keep my weight down, and minimize problems down the road. And it's a challenge. It's a challenge for Cog, too, since all we actually want to do is sit around, play games, and do whatever it is that pleases us. But it can't always be about what we want. Such a mentality is a trap. It leads to bad outcomes.Instead, we sometimes have to care about what we need. So we figured we'd try to help propagate a positive message, that you should earn your gaming time, that you should make dietary concessions, that you should exercise more and get your sleep. Maybe hearing it from our mouths will help someone, who knows?
