Language & Behavior

We are all part of the kingdom Animalia. We are therefore human animals. By reviewing and analyzing the behavior of non-human animals we can conclude a few ideas.
Firstly non-domesticated animals know what to eat, when to eat and how much to eat. The food isn’t always abundant. So it is essential that the food is consumed at opportune moments. The act of obtaining food is very energetic. It requires stealth, patience and focus.
You never see a “fat” animal out in the wild. This would indicate an individual eating more than it burned off in its daily activities. That would be counter to the laws of homeostasis. The principle goal for the animal is to eat until satiety and to feed their progeny. Food is not always plentiful or available.
Keep in mind that there is no guarantee on when the next meal will be. Any left over food is consumed by scavengers (e.g., hyenas, coyotes, vultures, crows, condors)
Instinctively Animals eat because they are hungry. They understand the sensation of hunger. They understand what they need to do to overcome that.
Human Animals – (in the developed world) eat for a wide variety of reasons outside of hunger,

By exercising we are getting back to our animal origins and therefore understanding the true connection between hunger and eating.
This affects our total self: physically, emotionally, psychologically and spiritually.
So it is necessary to understand the relationship exercise has on our total being. And how it effects our realtionship to others.
Principally high level aerobic exercise similar to jumping rope releases beneficial chemicals such as serotonin A, endorphinss, estrogen, dopamine and calcium.
And at the same time lowering cortisol levels. This allows for mood enhancement nerve reparation (e.g., increasing dendrite connections between neurons), and oveaor all improved mental health.
Increase in calcium levels correlate with higher levels of transcription factors in existing hippocampus neurons.
