It gets you active, burns calories, and be in a better state of mind. You need to focus on your shot in a stable and proper form, avoiding distraction. Control and patience can take too much time, and it can be frustrating, but it will teach you a lot in life. Determining to shoot precisely, and staying calm and accurate even under pressure, makes you a better archer and, consequently, a better person.
You can try indoor archery in Arrowland- SM Megamall, DMZ Archery Range in Project 6, Quezon City, and Poitiers Archery in Sampaloc, Manila.
Hiking
A tight schedule and heavy workloads can exhaust us. The general noise of life can make us more stressed, so the best idea when this happens is to go on hiking. You can never go wrong in the woods, away from the suffocating atmosphere. Hiking is an activity that allows you to reconnect with nature and gives your brain a much-needed recharge. Long hikes which expose us to natural light can increase melatonin levels that can improve overall sleep quality. Physical exercise can also improve our mood because of the release of endorphins, a brain chemical that triggers positive feelings.
