Abstract
in English, German

Have we reached a tipping point in digitalization dynamics through global lockdowns and the ongoing COVID-19 crisis? Have the lack of movement and the lack of prioritization of physical activity design destabilized our current global health-care system beyond the point of no return? To counteract the dramatic consequences for general health that can be assumed based on data analysis, the author outlines the foundations for a sustainable solution for the best possible integration of physical activity into work, everyday life, and education. The article shows that integrating neuromuscular awareness and neuroplastic movement practice is a necessity and a competitive advantage for the future.

Haben wir durch globale Lockdowns und die anhaltende Covid-19-Krise einen Kipppunkt in der Dynamik der Digitalisierung erreicht? Haben der Mangel an Bewegung und die fehlende Priorisierung der Gestaltung körperlicher Aktivität unser derzeitiges Gesundheitssystem über den Punkt ohne Wiederkehr hinaus destabilisiert? Um den dramatischen Folgen für die allgemeine Gesundheit entgegenzuwirken, die aufgrund der Datenanalyse angenommen werden können, skizziert der Autor die Grundlagen für eine nachhaltige Lösung zur bestmöglichen Integration von körperlicher Aktivität in Arbeit, Alltag und Bildung. Der Beitrag zeigt, dass die Integration von neuromuskulärer Bewusstheit und neuroplastischer Bewegungspraxis eine Notwendigkeit und ein Wettbewerbsvorteil für die Zukunft ist.

Keywords: COVID-19; Digital health; Digitalization; Lockdown; Neurogenesis; Physical inactivity.
