The life of the mind requires naps.
Yes! Lots of napping!
And the body can jog to the refrigerator.
That's not much of a jog.
Quantity, not quality.
Ha! Quality matters. :)
Also, not to be prosaic, the life of the mind requires a lot of READING. Of books, even. And other kinds of studying. I once trained myself to read on the treadmill (because I also like exercising, obvs not that smart) but it was just a way to combine two unsatisfying experiences so I finally decided to enjoy both without combining them.
