 Through participation in engaging or restorative occupations, the mental state of individuals can be improved and result in feelings of regeneration.Sleep, an area of occupation, not only regenerates physical and cognitive processes, but also is required for satisfactory occupational functioning.Participating in other relaxing or tension-reducing occupations, such as (for example) reading a book, getting a massage, going for a walk, exercising, or participating in an engaging hobby; may provide physical, cognitive and mental restoration, and stress reduction.
