Leisure is such an important part of human life that it has been included as a basic human right by the United Nations. Hobbies can involve doing things that make you feel good and provide a feeling of pleasure. Leisure is therefore linked to good health because it reduces stress on a person resulting from the pressures of daily life. The actual amount of free time and the activities people participate in during their free time vary widely across societies and cultures and even within them, based on differences in age groups, gender, social class and personality type (Carr, 1997). This essay is a study of the impact of these and other factors on the choice of leisure activities. In order to understand the impact of various sociocultural factors on leisure activities, I developed and analyzed my leisure activities during a typical week (attached in the Appendix). The goal is to actively and consciously understand the factors that shape my free time and activities. The essay begins with a summary of my hobbies which gives an idea of ​​a typical week in my life. This is followed by a critical analysis of the socio-cultural factors that I believe impact my choice of leisure activities and the time I spend on them. I have found that my leisure time and activities have been greatly influenced by a combination of two socio-cultural factors: the sedentary lifestyle brought about by the advent of the Internet and the emphasis on maintaining fitness. an active and healthy lifestyle. The Internet has undoubtedly made social interactions easier and faster, but at the same time it promotes a hectic, inactive lifestyle that must be consciously balanced with purposeful physical activities. I am constrained by the common mod...... middle of paper ......principles in considering my own leisure activities as a basis for analysis. I tried to understand to what extent the choice of leisure activities depends on my sociocultural environment. From the analysis, I came to the conclusion that the economic context has a definite impact on the duration and type of leisure activities. Interestingly, age has a significant impact, but not in the context of physical abilities and mental interests. In my opinion, people in different age groups have socially expected tasks. This has made young people busier and more limited in terms of time than older people, thus affecting their leisure activities. However, the most significant impact of leisure activities has been the advent of technology – primarily mobile communication and the Internet – which has led to the explosive growth of social media as a form of mass leisure activity..
