Is Exercise A Replacement For Therapy?

 Nowadays, it is not uncommon for exercise to be seen as something that is not only far more effective than therapy but as something that is far cheaper too. Like mindfulness, then, it is often seen as a panacea.


Based on this outlook, no matter what someone is dealing with or what is troubling them, the answer will be for them to exercise. This will allow them to change their life and it will save them a fair amount of money too.


Obsolete


As for therapy, well, this can just be anachronismand thus, something that is no longer needed. Also, this could just be seen as something that someone is likely to pay over the odds for and waste their life having.

​

If this is the case, so exercise works and is relatively cheap and therapy doesn't and is expensive, there is only going to be one option. Exercise will be the answer and that's all there is to it.


A Closer Look


When it comes to why exercise is the answer, someone could say that it's because it will allow another to feel good and even relaxed. They could even say that endorphins are released, which like morphine, will suppress pain and allow them to feel better (endorphins are said to be a far more powerful pain killer than morphine).


With this in mind, it will show that someone like this probably believes that someone would only have therapy if they felt depressed and/or had anxiety problems. The purpose of therapy is then to make someone feel better and/or more relaxed.


A Natural Outlook


Most likely, this is something that exercise will help with, at least while one is exercising and shortly after. However, what will one do when they are at work or out socialising and they feel depressed or anxious? They won't be able to exercise during this time.


Now, exercise does have long term effects but it clearly has its limits, just like everything else. Moreover, although it may seem as though someone would only have therapy to feel better and/or to be more relaxed, there is far more to it than this.


Another Element


If someone has this outlook, it could show that their mental and emotional health is generally good and feeling down on the odd occasion and/or even anxious is about as far as it goes for them. As a result of this, it doesn't occur to them that there are some people who have serious mental and emotional problems.


This can also be seen as an example of projection, where one is projecting their inner experience onto others. The outcome of this is that they don't realise how different some people's inner experience is compared to theirs.
