'''Recovery Hearts''' are omnipresent objects in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]].
 
 
==Location and Uses==
 
[[File:Recover heart.png|30px|left]]
 
Hearts aid [[Link]] by replenishing his life energy by one heart at a time. They can be found anywhere in [[Hyrule]], [[Koholint Island]], [[Termina]], [[Labrynna]], [[Holodrum]], the [[Great Sea]], the [[World of the Ocean King]], and [[Skyloft]]. Recovery Hearts are uncovered in pots, jars, tall [[grass]], defeated enemies, under rocks and, in many instances, they can even be purchased from shops. They appear as small, floating, red hearts.
 
 
===Life Meter===
 
In various ''The Legend of Zelda'' games, Link can extend his life energy from three to twenty hearts. In others, the maximum is 14 or 16. The only game where Link doesn't have his health represented by hearts is {{TAoL}}, where it's represented by rectangular segments (the game still features [[Heart Container]]s to increase the life meter, however).
 
 
{{PH}} introduced a Green Recovery Heart. These replenished the endurance of the [[S.S. Linebeck]] and were only found while traveling the [[Great Sea]]. These same types of Recovery Hearts are used in {{ST}} to heal the [[Spirit Train]].
 
 
=== Oxygen ===
 
{{Main|Oxygen Gauge}}
 
In both {{OoT}} and {{MM}}, '''oxygen''' is measured according to Link's life meter. When he is exposed for too long underwater, or enters a very hot environment, a timer appears. Before it runs out, the young hero must either rise to surface or exit from the hot area, depending on the area; otherwise, he will die. How long the time will be depends on the current life meter (not only the maximum capacity, but also the current amount of hearts). For every eighth of a heart Link has, he will have one second on the timer. For example, if he enters [[Death Mountain Crater]] with a three-heart meter unharmed, then he will have 24 seconds to exit from there. The timer remains unaffected by the [[Enhanced Defense]] upgrade.
 
 
=== As a Gesture of Gratitude or Love ===
 
One humorous moment in {{TP}} occurs when Link defeats the boss of the Snowpeak Ruins, [[Blizzeta]], who is actually [[Yeta]], the wife of [[Yeto]]. After she is restored, Yeto rushes to Yeta's side and the pair share a romantic moment. At this point, forty recovery hearts burst from the pair, as well as a [[Heart Container]]. Similarly in ''Twilight Princess'', after Link beats the [[STAR Game]] in [[Hyrule Castle Town|Castle Town East]], he can gain three hearts by approaching [[Kili, Hannah and Misha]]. More hearts also appear near [[Honey and Darling]] in ''Majora's Mask'', although Link is unable to collect these Hearts.
 
 
Another moment occurs in ''Ocarina of Time'': as Link and Zelda reach specific floors in [[Ganon's Castle]], Zelda becomes trapped in a ring of fire and two [[Stalfos]] appear. The only way to free Zelda is to defeat both foes; once this occurs, she thanks Link and drops a few Recovery Hearts.
