ethics

moral principals that need understanding and challenging, not just blindly obeying.
what makes you acceptable in the eyes of the gods, if deemed actually absolutely moral (true ethicality).

good reasons to do things.

how you get dharma points, to enter The (Real) Good Place.

meditation

something that can seem boring and uncomfortable, but just try it for more than 30 min, daily, to get back your investment, plus interest.
you don't need to sit in an uncomfortable position, but also don't fall asleep immediately because you finally stopped looking at a laptop or phone screen for 5 minutes and your brain feels utterly grateful and relieved.

useful to pick a goal to keep you engaged. even though they are not really-really a thing, as described on the internet, like a lot of other things, really, a lot of people feel very motivated to finally feel some chakra. why not pick this?

why not try meditation to feel some interesting things? ...eventually
something to meditate on

Doug: your entire body can basically be seen as a lot of chakras, kinda. if you are very pragmatic, think about the fact that you have nerve endings everywhere, works! if you get very spiritual with this, you can also say you are not just your body, so more chakras to focus on. try meditation.

running

cardio activity that, despite its huge popularity and cult status, is actually not that great for your joints, gradually destroying your knees, in particular, at an accelerated pace.

searching this quickly online will tell you that you can avoid knee pain after running by "icing your knees" and "taking anti-inflammatory medication as needed", but this alone should tell you running is not actually healthy for you in the first place, for real! why not pick to have good knees when you are in your 80s?

if you do insist in picking this activity, over kinder ones, like swimming, biking, or power walking, for example, as a challenge, to prove yourself or just because you wanna purely impress when prancing around in aesthetic athletic gear or mentioning your average pace, do be mindful to: select adequate shoes, take some supplements to help your joins, like glucosamine, avoid running downhill, always just uphill, build good form, to reduce impact and wobbling on stepping, skip running on asphalt and pick running tracks, thread mills or dirt paths that are even, and do a lot of leg exercises, to build up your surrounding muscles, so that they take pressure off the knees.
anyone asking: Forcett, wanna go running?
Doug: no.
