Remember the days of recess and playing with wild abandon? As adults, we often forget the importance of play in our lives. But the truth is, playtime isn’t just for kids – it’s a critical component of our mental, physical, and emotional well-being.
游戏时间的核心是获得乐趣的机会,而研究表明,获得乐趣对我们的健康至关重要。当我们参与游戏时,我们的大脑会释放荷尔蒙,对我们的整体健康有切实的好处。比如说:
- 多巴胺与快乐和奖励有关,当我们经历像游戏这样令人愉快的事情时就会释放。这创造了一种健康的满足感和感激之情。
- 皮质醇虽然经常与压力有关,但实际上在适度水平上有助于调节压力和改善认知功能。
- 催产素和内啡肽都与社会关系、信任和减少疼痛有关,也在游戏中释放。
Apart from these chemical benefits, playtime is absolutely critical for our cognitive, social, and physical development. In kids, playtime helps develop problem-solving skills, empathy, and resilience – all of which are essential for healthy social and emotional development. For adults and the elderly, engaging in physical activities like sports, tai chi, or dancing can help maintain motor skills and reduce the risk of age-related decline.
