Inflation and recession are two economical concepts which are pretty much very different from each other, actually.
Inflation is about the change of prices of products and services for those who are the final consumers in the economy. While recession refers to a negative growth of the economy happening consecutively each period of time the economical growth is measured (I think it is measured each semester or quarter, for the sake of economic metrics).

So, the prices of the stuff you buy could be going up at some reasonable pace, but of somehow the government of your country manages to keep the size of the economy to go up, then by defi ition there would be no recession going on. Though, it is true that a high inflation usually is linked to a deceleration of the economy.
