It's kind of like modern medicine in that it will help counteract some of the symptoms but not fix the underlying problem. A complete lifestyle change is needed, because most people are living a highly unnatural and unsustainable way of life. Re: regular exercise won't fix sitting for long hours

Date: January 21, 2015 04:06PM Why do people consistently choose the quick fix over the long-term one? Give someone a band-aid solution and they're happy, but tell them how they can actually get to the root of their problem and eliminate it for good and they balk. Why do people think that exercising for an hour will counteract an entire day spent sitting down? Why not change your lifestyle so you are active the majority of your waking hours and reap the real benefits? It's just like people who try to cure their disease by popping a pill twice a day, all the while continuing to do the very things that are causing their ill health. Brief bouts of exercise is not enough, you need to be active all day. Popping a pill is not enough, you need to eliminate everything that brought about the malady in the first place. Meditating for an hour a day is not enough if you continue to have erroneous thoughts and deeds for the other 11 hours...you must make your entire life a meditation.
The quick fix is not enough, we must take drastic measures because we are so deep in the nonsense we have forgotten how to live properly. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
