Soon magical andThe long-awaited 10 days of New Year's holidays. A natural question arises - how to spend these days so as to get the most benefit and pleasure from them? Of course, you can buy a ticket and go to a ski resort, or, on the contrary, warm up in a warm place like Israel, the Maldives, the United Arab Emirates or Thailand. Many of our compatriots like active recreation in Northern Finland or the Alps. Even beginner skiers return satisfied, because this time is the peak of the ski season. The easiest way to go to Finland is with friends or with family. This is convenient - this way you can rent a cheap and comfortable cottage. Low prices and comfort can also be found in other resort areas: in Egypt, Turkey, the Baltics and the Czech Republic. But what should those do for whom even an inexpensive vacation abroad does not fit into the family budget? How to properly organize the upcoming vacation? And what do we actually imagine under the word "rest"? Unfortunately, most Russians spend the New Year holidays on the couch watching TV and eating holiday treats. At the same time, no one thinks about the fact that such a pastime has a detrimental effect on our nervous system and the body as a whole. This kind of "rest" can only aggravate depression after a long series of workdays and worsen health.
Where is the "useful" rest?
We hope you already realized that you are not in the sofaOur health is hidden, so lying on it should be canceled along with dullness in front of the TV and gluttony. Try not to overeat and move more, try, if the weather allows, to spend most of the day outdoors. Some people may not accept our recommendations, because people have been waiting for these holidays for so long to have a quiet rest, watch their favorite shows and get enough sleep! You can’t waste such a rare opportunity on incomprehensible hikes - where and why, if you don’t have to go to work? However, experts have a different opinion. They are sure that the best rest is an active pastime in nature. If you spend at least an hour in the park on skis, your body will relax and rest much better than during the whole day spent on the couch. The same remedy will be true if you are dead tired and do not want to move. Doctors and psychologists unanimously declare that an hour of walking in a pine forest brings invaluable benefits to our body. In comparison, resting in front of the TV can only further load an already overloaded psyche. The body can relax physically, psychologically and emotionally only in the fresh air. Don't waste your precious time and make the New Year holidays as useful as possible!
Active rest is the guarantee of health!
We understand perfectly well that after the New Yearyear, it is unlikely that anyone will be able to go out into the forest for a walk, unless you celebrated the holiday right in the forest. But in the following days, everything is in your hands! The easiest option is to go to the skating rink. Another simple option is to get together with friends for a walk in the nearest park. Or even better - to a recreation center. The lack of a car is not a problem, the electric train is an excellent transport for such an occasion. If you do not have any base in the area, organize an independent hike. Do not forget to take with you to nature the things necessary for full-fledged winter entertainment - a video camera, skis and sleds. You will have unique footage that will cheer you and your whole family up throughout the year! By the way, it is better to conduct sports activities in the forest on special wide "forest" skis. Naturally, they will not allow you to rush with the wind, however, they are very convenient for moving on deep untouched snow. For speed lovers, there are other options - a place where a large number of people ski. Hills with packed slopes are perfect for both experienced athletes and those who are skiing for the first time. Such places are also convenient for sledding, ice-sleds and other equipment. For the desperate ones who decided to get to the recreation center, we recommend taking enough money with you so as not to worry about using the ski lift and renting equipment. It hardly makes sense to take animals with you to the recreation center. At the ski resort, a dog can injure itself if it gets under the feet of a skier flying quickly down the slope. Your four-legged friend will feel much freer in the forest. Organize several such trips for yourself during the New Year holidays, and you will ensure a long supply of good mood from the feeling of celebration and good rest. After all, all this time you can play snowballs, ride, participate in winter fun, just flounder in the snow for your own pleasure, and then eat potatoes baked in ashes, and drink hot sweet tea. Isn't that happiness? Positive impressions for adults and children will be left by photos in which there will be elegant trees near your campsite, decorated with balloons, tinsel and rain. The main thing is to eliminate the remains of the fire and take away trash from the forest, so as not to spoil the magic of the winter fairy tale. Think about the fact that many people want to relax in the forest, and they, like you, want to fully experience the fabulous splendor of winter.
Winter vacation in a camp or village
Another option for a holiday during the New Year holidaysthose who are lucky enough to have relatives in the countryside. Going to visit them is a great choice! In this case, you can combine the pleasant with the useful. For example, breathe in plenty of fresh air and at the same time help your relatives with the housework. You will be sure to get a boost of good mood and energy. If there is a sanatorium or children's health camp in the area, you can rent skis and regularly go skiing. Many children's camps currently benefit from providing such a service to city residents. Don't miss the opportunity to ski for your own pleasure and improve your health. However, this option may not be viable in some cases. Then you can simply take a sled and go sledding with your guests at home. Such a fun outing will be a great continuation of the holiday.
Set the rules for the New Year holidays
Let the main rules for you be –fresh air, movement, activity and a positive attitude. And our children will be an excellent incentive for this. How often are we busy with work, and constantly postpone the opportunity to communicate with them "for later". Play and have fun together in nature - this time has already come! Often a situation arises when children spend time watching TV or at the computer, and parents encourage this activity because in this way the child does not distract them from work. But such negligence does not pass by and affects the behavior, education, health of the child and in many other areas of his life. Therefore, you need to use the New Year holidays to the fullest - run, play, roll in the snow, laugh with children. Blind together some kind of person, a snowman, a snow woman, make a slide or a fortress in your yard. Involve your child's friends and their parents in your activities. Time spent together doing one thing will help you get closer and give you an excellent boost of energy until the summer.
