🧠 Do relationships make you age? ~The idea of implementing 'idempotency' in humans~
🌍 Negative relationships accelerate aging
I have heard a story like this.
Negative relationships accelerate aging
I can relate to this from personal experience.
Constantly thinking about someone you dislike
Your body tensing up
Having shallow sleep
In other words,
a state of not being able to recover continues
🌍 The true nature of feeling 'somehow tired'
Drinking alcohol after work.
Complaining to someone.
Going shopping.
Eating sweets.
Stopping going to school.
Quitting your job.
These actions may seem unrelated at first glance.
However, when viewed from a single perspective, they can all be explained.
People are trying to 'recover'.
And they are doing it in their own way.
🧩 Why do people take the long way around?
A question arises here.
'Is that recovery method optimal? Is there a better way to recover?'
The answer is simple.
They don't know
Cannot try it
Cannot keep it up
That is why people
“the most immediate recovery they know of”
keep choosing.
Alcohol, smartphones, shopping.
That is not wrong.
However,
it may not be optimal
🧠 Rephrasing the true nature of aging
Let's change the definition here for a moment.
Aging is a state where recovery is not being achieved
If that is the case, the problem is simple.
How can we have a 'recovery mechanism'?
💡 Viewing humans as a 'system'
Let's change our perspective here.
View humans as
a system with states
as.
🔁 And 'idempotency'
There is a concept like this in the IT world.
Idempotency
The property where, no matter how many times an operation is performed, it eventually converges to the same state
An idempotent system is based on the idea of defining a correctly functioning state and automatically performing operations to bridge the gap from the current state.
Applying this to humans means:
If it drifts, bring it back.
If it drifts, bring it back
If it's good, do nothing
Even so, ultimately,
continuing to return to a good state
🌿 Good State
What is important is not the 'action' but the 'state'.
■ Mind
Quiet
■ Body
Light and tension-free
■ Energy
Able to move naturally
This is,
a stable operating state
🔍 Diff from current state
Mind is noisy
Body is heavy
Don't want to move
This is
misalignment
🔧 Prescribe only when there is misalignment
Only here does the 'recovery method' take on meaning.
🧩 Layers of recovery prescriptions
Recovery methods may look scattered, but they can be organized.
1. Physical system (returning from the body)
State: Body feels heavy / tired
Bathing / Hot springs
Light exercise
Yoga / Stretching
Sleep
2. Nervous system (reset)
State: Thoughts won't stop
Breathing techniques
Meditation
Connecting with nature
Sauna
3. Interpersonal / Structural (addressing the cause)
State: Relationship stress
Talk to someone
Write it out
Keep your distance
Draw boundaries
④ Emotion (Release)
State: Feeling down
Watch comedy
Movies or music
Laugh with someone
⑤ Medical (If necessary)
State: Chronic or severe malaise
Consult a doctor
Medication
Professional care
All are 'prescriptions for recovery'
🎯 The Core of Idempotency
This is the most important part.
❌ Conventional
'You should do this every day'
⭕ Idempotent Model
“Return only when there is a deviation”
And,
No matter how many times you apply the same prescription, the state converges to stability
🔁 The choice to do nothing
What if the state is good?
Do nothing
It is okay not to exercise
It is okay not to be perfect
If the state is good, that is the correct answer
📊 Handling numerical values
Heart rate
Blood pressure
Brain waves
These are
states as a result
How to use them is simple.
Observe the state
Supplement with numerical values
Infer the cause from the deviation
Do not follow the numbers. Read the numbers.
🧑🔧 The existence of a Recovery Specialist
If there were someone who could handle this mechanism.
Recovery Specialist
They have one role.
Observe the state and the delta, then design a prescription
Connect to medical care
Suggest yoga
Recommend comedy
Organize relationships
In other words,
A coordinator for human recovery systems
🌱 Finally
Negative relationships accelerate aging.
And people are trying to recover somehow every day.
However, that recovery might be,
accidental, ad-hoc, and inefficient
perhaps.
That is why what is needed is,
to 'design' recovery
If it drifts, bring it back.
If it's good, keep it as is.
Even so, in the end,
converging to a good state
Idempotency for humans.
That is a design for being less prone to breaking and
continuing to function for a long time.
