Some people think that it is important to use leisure time for activities that improve the mind, such as reading and doing word puzzles. Other people feel that it is important to rest the mind during leisure time.

it is generally accepted that we all need leisure

time

to recover from the stresses of

work

and everyday life. Personally, I prefer to be active during

this

, as I think

suits me better.

, what we do with our leisure

time

is up to us and no one can say that any particular activity is the best. Some

people

relax by watching movies, reading or surfing the internet.

People

who have physically demanding jobs may choose these types of activities. If you are a nurse or builder, you may feel that you don’t want to do a five-kilometre run after

work

, because you are already physically tired. Other

people

do very sedentary jobs. Computer analysts,

for example

, may spend all day sitting in front of a computer screen.

At the end

of the working day, they may be keen to stretch their limbs and improve their health by swimming or going to the gym. Another factor that influences our choice of leisure pursuit is where we

work

.

outdoors, the reverse may be true. I am a student myself and

this

involves a lot of sitting in lectures, so I need to get out into the fresh air afterwards. In any situation, the important thing is that

people

need to stay healthy by choosing what is best for them. The only wrong way to spend free

time

, in my view, is to have a sedentary job and

then

go home and watch television.
