Recreation and it's forms

 

What means for me recreation? When we after working many, many hours a week in a big building and saving lives of our patient, we never think about having breaks, having our meals or sometimes even drinking water. There are some days when the surgery lasts about 6 hours, that means we are at the operating table for 6 hours, without eating but also without drinking. It is amazing how much our body has resources to work under pressure and with the help of Adrenalin hours on high attentive and fully concentrated level. We never think about anything else but only how to fix the problem and how to finish the surgery. At the end it is very satisfying to know that our work make someone better.

But when I come home, then I can feel that my legs aching from hours of standing and I usually fall asleep sometimes before 10PM.

In my profession, it is important to use free time and to get fresh air, positive energy and to get fit for the next round.

There are few forms of recreation:

• emotionally: this is one of the most important and it depends on people around you, your own family, children and parents. When children are little you discovering world together with them, you are learning together and you becoming wiser every day.

• physical: we need to keep our body healthy and strong, the muscles need daily activities and one of my favourite one is cycling because it is a combination of visiting nice destination but also a proper workout for the whole body

• mental: we need a bit of time for us, for our thoughts, mind to relax and to meditate

 

Recreation: family and kids

 

We love spend with my hubby and our son when he was little walking. While living in a little rural area, we have forest, coast and many little fishermen villages. No matter what the weather is we always go for our walk. Every season is different and I love all of them. Unfortunately, we do not have much snow in winter, that is why it is a bit boring not to have white winter. Autumn and Spring often similar there is cloudy, rainy weather, so important to get raincoat with hoody and boots, the rest is not important.

That is why I did my painting before in the past when our son was little, now he is grown up :)

 

Recreation: cycling

 

Cycling time by @stef1

 

Cycling is our favourite free time activities, summer is the best time, sunny, warm and we usually have many different places to visit and travel about 16 km a day. Such trips are family trips and we plan it for the whole day with having picnic in fresh air and also visiting some sightseeing areas. Again we combine that both spending time with family, fitness but also physical activity for our body.

When children young this is the best time to teach them cycling, they have no fear and do not think about fall or injuries like we adults, that is why they learn quick. I must say my son cycles much better than me by now.

You may see that my favourite recreation way, cycling also found its place in my Painting :)

 

Recreation: meditation

 

“Sleeping Buddha” by @stef1

Time to time we need to clear our mind, to let our thoughts and just to concentrate on breathing, often during this moments we can find a solution for something that we struggle to solve for long time. Often it is enough just let our thoughts free and we may suddenly realise that very difficult problem has an easy solution.

The whole meditation is coming from South East Asian and for everyone Buddhism is the origin of perfection of our mind.

That also found its place in my collection, this little Buddha drawing was done in order to reflect the one of the relaxation for our soul and recreate our energy.
