Healthy foods for the body.
Healthy feeds for the mind.

Is there an equivalent of the "food groups" concept for the mind? What does a balanced diet for the mind look like?

Interesting question, I used to think a lot about this

Long form, non-visual content is the "mostly plants" of a healthy diet (can be blogs, pods, audiobooks, books — I am biased towards books but I don't think they're necessarily superior)

Short form, visual content OTOH is basically sugar

I also make another important distinction

Knowledge actively sought (or found while deliberately wandering, eg second-hand book stores) should always come before knowledge found or "handed down"

I actually find "feed" to be an obscene word in this context, if you get my meaning
