Strength training has such an incredible impact on your overall wellbeing everyone should incorporate it into their routine as much as possible

There's not gonna be a proper answer that applies to everyone. For myself, riding BMX flatland, riding unicycles, carving wood, learning survival skills, keeping time..

Also, a 1 meter pendulum swings at a rate of once per second. Handy info to know if all the clocks shut down, like in a survivalist situation or natural disaster.

Ah yes, because in an Apocalypse I'm gonna have a 1 meter pendulum handy.

[–] logos@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

Anything one meter long swinging on a pivot is a 1 meter pendulum no?

It probably only costs like $10 to get a measured line professionally tattooed on your leg/thigh for reference.

You joke, but sometimes I've had a crappy day and just wanna play some ARAMs.

[–] kurcatovium@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, totally! The best answer so far!

Only (former) League players will understand.

That is indeed the correct abbreviation

But honestly, quiting such a toxic dumpster fire is really relaxing on your nerves.

How do you know if you don't have good mental health? I feel fine almost all the time.

[–] Joshi@aussie.zone 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

In much the same way that almost no one has perfect physical health, almost no one has perfect mental health.

You don't need to be a complete wreck to be able to benefit from paying attention to your mental wellness.

Eating well, regular exercise, mindfulness, forgiveness, good sleep practices are all worth practicing whether you feel unwell or not.

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

I do those things by default. Only have one body, I like it to be healthy.

As a very stable genius, I completely agree with this.

[–] OxidantZero@lemm.ee 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Chess. I think it's saved my mental health over the last year.

Jigsaw puzzles. Start with a couple of hundreds of pieces and then go with the ones of thousands. Also gardening, but you need to have a garden or enough space to have plants inside your home.
