Essentiality of recreational activities in this emerging life style
Taking part in recreational activities, especially outdoors, can greatly improve physical health. People who take part in park activities such as walking, hiking, or skiing, schedule fewer office visits, maintain lower body fat percentages, and have lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Along with an increase in physical activity, recreation offers the chance to socialize, an important benefit in itself.
Mental wellness is critical to overall physical health. Participating in recreational activities helps manage stress. Taking time to nurture oneself provides a sense of balance and self-esteem, which can directly reduce anxiety and depression.
Recreation allows some to rejuvenate, calm the mind, improve their outlook on life and increase positive affect.
It’s all about balance. Nowadays everyone are busier than ever before. Finding a way to balance the pressures of work and family with physical and mental wellbeing is important. People who make recreation a priority are more likely to feel satisfied with their lives overall.
In fact, 90 percent of respondents who said they participate in regular, outdoor recreation reported satisfaction with their overall lives. Contrast that to 60 percent life satisfaction for respondents who do not regularly recreate outdoors. It’s clear that simply going outdoors and moving your body is a direct way to a happier, healthier you.
Recreation is linked to improving quality of life.
Have a healthy life span!
