On the contrary, changing your physiology will change much about your life.

E.g. developing muscles, good posture and meditation help massively to build confidence which will help you all around e.g. to speak up at work.

Body-Mind is bidirectional and I would really recommend you try working on whichever angle you can start. There is no good life without a healthy body, but of course it's not the only thing.

if it's expressive evocative emotional physical activity, i agree. like a fun soccer game, a good dance, etc. anything that releases tension in the body and helps you to breath more fully and in a more relaxed happy way

if it's physical activity using will (like a droning gym routine) or meditation, i actually think it can lead to more stiffness and weirdness and awkwardness in a person's psychology

the body is not meant to be controlled by the mind

the objective is just to simply connect with the body more, not yell at it
