Essay from the year 2009 in the subject Pedagogy - School Pedagogics, grade: Distinction, University of South Australia, language: English, abstract: The essay discusses the relationship between adventure and/or wilderness, health and well being. It is labourious to overcome one`s weaker self. It is quite an investment to play sports, do activities or even to participate at an adventure. Humans in our modern time like comfort, security and idleness. In times of TV, insurance for everything, cars and elevators there is no need for effort and people get used to an idle lifestyle. Nevertheless, why should we participate in adventure or outdoor activities? Is there a positive relationship between participation in adventure activities and health or wellbeing? In the following I will define adventure, wellbeing and health, and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of adventure activities and their relation to wellbeing and health.
