FOREWORD

"When should I start? There's no time for that."

In our fast-paced society, we often use similar phrases in any area of our lives, including the issues that determine our health.

But let's pause for a moment in this rush,
and listen!

In the seemingly sudden silence, we slowly realise that our own sense of well-being is often pushed to the background, and that it is the time we spend on our health that is the least of our efforts to live a quality life well. In addition to the fact that our need to relax and spend our leisure time in a cultured way is often squeezed out, we are not even aware that recreation is actually very important for maintaining our health: it supports our physical, mental and, in many cases, social well-being.

If we recognise our need for something 'different', we can find so many opportunities in the drab and monotonous everyday: a forgotten theatre ticket, a book that we have left unfinished, an advertisement for a dance class or even a coupon for an attraction on our bucket list.

Our work is to support the mainstreaming of the content behind the concept of recreation for a better quality of life.

Lifestyle is a major determinant of health, and the value of the time we spend with ourselves is essential to positively influence its elements.

"When do we start? Now!"

I wish you a pleasant recreation and good health!
