Old-fashioned strength and conditioning, people! Lift heavy weights, run and/or row, and eat a lot of protein. Magic things happen that aren't magical at all, but just the body responding as it ever does. Plus you can do things like carry all of the grocery bags in from the car at once without noticing. (Feel free to substitute the daily lifting task of your choice there.)
Do not underestimate the psychological benefits of physical strength. There is something about this literal empowerment that translates into overall empowerment. If you can effect that change in your body, you can change other things. Many other things. And you have power over your environment that you didn't have before.
End of newage pep talk.
More listening: Ultimae Records's entire catalog on Bandcamp. All of it! A label with amazing taste in ambient trance/psychill/whatever you want to call the downtempo electronic genre this week.
What are you listening to these days?
