LEISURE

   Leisure is an escape valve necessary to the spirit. Your mind, important organ for expression and communication, yet in maturation process, gathers tensions generated in the experiences of contact with the unknown, which, each moment naturally emerge to it, be it for fear or for anxiety, provoking the necessity of relief. When not experienced, it’s projected during sport events of many modalities. Even though, it will miss the direct experience for the relief of those tensions. Leisure will continue to be required for that important function of relieving physical and psychic tensions. To believe that the practice of sports and leisure are merely cults to the body is not understand the psychic dynamics. The World Championships, the Olympics and other collective events that oversee competition and leisure, besides the direct benefits that they bring to economy, are extremely important to the psychic balance of humanity.
