Yep. 100% And cutting out booze helps too. But tracking has made a huge difference for me. And tracking data should help us understand this connect better.

Definitely. I saw that my heart rate stays above 85 during sleep on nights I was drinking vs low 70's - mid 60's on nights I had no alcohol.

Yeah I've come to suspect that the benefits and harms of a broad range of factors - alcohol in particular, but also dietary carb content, and exercise - are mediated in large part thru impact on sleep quality. Having newborn baby makes these things more personally noticeable.

I have pretty much stopped drinking alcohol over the past year and finally am able to sleep through the night after many years of not being able to

Aerobic exercise increases brain cell growth. BDNF. And increased neuronal connections. Read the book “Spark” by John Ratey

I'd say about 20%. Another 20% comes from the accompanying endorphin rush (which is low-grade heroin). Another 20% from the feeling of pride and accomplishment, and another 20% from increased health and another 20% from increased energy (due to increased health and endorphins).

>Another 20% comes from the accompanying endorphin rush (which is low-grade heroin). By that logic, people enthusiastic about being whipped ought to be doing quite good.

I think the amount of effort required to continually tire oneself out probably makes this a short lived benefit
