Sometimes illnesses or injuries can change our life entirely. First there is a fight, then the recovery process. Sometimes it is quick and painless, sometimes it is difficult. A healthy diet, regular exercise, good sleep and support from the ones we love can improve recovery. A positive attitude towards life can help a lot, too. We must remember that sometimes our bodies need more time. The process of recovery is as important as healing.
Czasami choroby lub kontuzje mogą całkowicie zmienić nasze życie. Najpierw jest walka, potem proces powrotu do zdrowia. Bywa, że jest on szybki i bezbolesny, ale zdarza się, że jest trudny. Zdrowa dieta, regularne ćwiczenia, dobry sen i wsparcie ze strony tych, których kochamy, mogą przyspieszyć ten proces. Pozytywne nastawienie do życia również bywa pomocne. Musimy jednak pamiętać, iż nasze ciała potrzebują niekiedy więcej czasu na regenerację. Proces powrotu do zdrowia jest tak samo ważny, jak leczenie.
