How I wish sometimes that Life was always a "Play Time", I mean all that you do would be with fun and enjoyment. There would be so much of pleasantness, feelings of harmony, peace, satisfaction, contentment all around. But as we say Life is not a Bed of Roses so there are always things coming up that take up our energy in the wrong way.
Why is "Play Time" Important?
"Play Time is so much essential for all of us. We are living in a crazy world full of chaos, and In midst of all the chaos that we go through in our lives then it would become so important to find that "Play Time" for ourselves. Finding that little time to do the things that you enjoy the most changes the mood for the day. It can make you forget your worries, setbacks, problems, challenges of life. Life is not always about work, commitments and just responsibilities, the little fun time on regular basis not only gives us a good feeling but can also help us developing a healthy mind, fueling up our imaginations, creativity and an overall well being. Play time is not only meant for Children it is equally important for adults as well. Just allowing yourself to let go of loose and not thinking much if we enjoy our play time it definitely brings in a lot of benefits to our physical, emotional and mental body.
At my workplace we used to also set up a Play time on a regular basis, like having set themes "Friday Fun", "Fun at Work" and "Tickle your Senses", with this little break we used to see how employees mood would change boosting their morale and a higher job satisfaction. Ideally in every area of life it is the same. When we have that little play time for our-self it completely rejuvenates us.
What are my favorite Fun things to do?
There are many things that I enjoy and it also depends on the mood of the day. But these are few things that gives me too much pleasure and makes me forget all the worries of life.
Dancing and Music, This is something I love doing the most, not that I am a very good dancer, just a free form of dance I enjoy it the most. When I was in Mumbai every Saturday night we friends used to go out clubbing and dance throughout the night, it would be a wonderful time for me. On Sunday morning the mood would be completely different. I would feel so light and relaxed. This is something now I terribly miss in Muscat, but whenever I travel to Mumbai I make it a point to catch up with my friends on a clubbing plan.
Spending time with my friends, Who does not enjoy this part of life. Being in good company is very refreshing, cracking jokes, meeting up for a singing and drinking sessions, having good food along with it, and then there are times when we make some prank calls. OMG I wish Life would all the time be like this fun and frolic....hahaha
Travelling, Whether it's a long or a short journey, travelling is something I enjoy the most. Most of the weekends we are out of the house either on an overnight trip or just a day excursion. Spending time in nature is blissful, it makes me feel my best self. Travelling teaches us many things in life, we do not only get to know new places and culture but with every place you travel you also get to explore your own-self. It opens me up to new experiences of life.
Spending time with Crystals,I can spend hours and hours with them and never feel it's enough. I enjoy just experimenting with them, making Crystal Grids, testing their healing capabilities and enjoying their soothing energies.
Watching Movies in a Cinema House,This is something I again enjoy to the maximum. I do not like to watch movies at home. I enjoy going to a theater and watching a movie along with my favorite Chocolate Ice-cream....hehehe.
Playing with Children, OMG goofing around with them is so much of fun. I would miss anything to spend time with my nephews and nieces or any child. Their innocence is so damn cute. Few days back one of my friend and me spent our evening together with her 4 year old son, he would make me run all over the place and then his endless questions would drive me nuts but this fun cannot be replaced with any pleasures of the world.
These are some of my fun things that relaxes me to the core; What are your's?

Playtime is like relaxing in a spa with head massage and sauna bath.

Ohh yes everyone has different ideas about play time, spa and sauna I would like but not that often, once in a way it would be fine. You wrote your heart out so it's perfectly fine...hehehe
We have been doing this in my office as well. Most of the Fridays we usually have some fun activity or small games to just relax the mind. With all the work we do every day relaxation is very important. So as you said playtime is really helpful. The only problem for the IT people like me is the challenge in spending time to do any physical activity. There are so many things for mental relaxation but there are only little opportunity for physical activities. Nice post.

Corporates do realize the importance of a relaxed atmosphere. At TCS we had a gym inside our work premises at some of our locations, specially the BPOs. I can understand how hectic the work life is, but then sometimes we just need to squeeze in that time for us.
Yes playtime is a thing in our lives that we always wanted to do because of the pleasant feelings that it does, we only do work because we needed to put foods in our mouths. @nainaztengra
I wish that I can do some of the things that gives me a pleasurable experience but I am only limited to some.
Even if you can manage to do one thing it is nice. There are so many people who get the opportunity and they dont do it which is so very sad
yes, dear, how important it's to rest well!
here we say that to work well people must rest well (that's wy we have so many holidays during the year maybe;))
but actually good rest is important always for a good life, not only for good work
Good rest is very very important. If I do not get my 8 hours sleep I feel very goofy the next day...hehehe

That's cool that you have "Play Time" at work! My work involves a lot of playing with kids in the "Play and Exploration" program, I love it! You seem to realize how important these breaks are but often folks won't realize how much we need these breaks until they actually take them then they see what a difference it can make. What type of work do you do that they have "Play time"? I had never even heard of that before.
The Companies now a days are bringing in this culture more and more of having some play time during work hours. Specially the IT companies as they realize how stressful the jobs are so it is very important. I worked for Accenture one of the biggest IT company and thankfully we had the best practices for our employees.
You have a wonderful job my dear, spending time with children even if it is meant for work is play time.
How fortunate that you work for such a company that carries out those best practices for the employees. When you think of it work takes up a big part of your life and if you don't get some play time to balance it out it really does effect your live - the only one we've got! I'm glad to hear more and more companies are adopting that. That and if they can be more family oriented, realizing that family is more important than work and they can make concessions to ensure a happy family life , balancing family and work.

interesting
articles that I like to read, setting play time, fun trips, watching at the theater always fun, do you like horror movies, @nainaztengra,☺️
Horror......Nooooooo, I never want to watch them. I prefer light hearted comedies, romance, action, drama, everything except for horror :-)
Your play times are great! I often do them myself and yes, I completely agree with you that they are important. As babies, play is the only method of learning, I wish it stayed like that but hey, we can try. Thank you for sharing your thought on this, there were lovely to read, much love! 💚
Yes how I wish we could always be at that level of little children, the innocence and the playfulness it all gets lost in the growing up process.
im with you there! dancing yes! one of the best ways to have fun really! x <3
