Happy Friday, Readers! How are you all doing today? I hope you had a wonderful Friday and staying well.

We are on the fifth day of the week, and it seems like the days are going faster than ever.

For many of us, making out time or energy to engage in hobbies may seem like something that will add more stress to our lives.

You have to deal with school, work, family, life, and obligations, and they can be quite overwhelming, which may leave little room for doing activities that we enjoy.

Hobbies are those activities that take us out of our everyday cycle/experience and give us a chance to do something we are passionate about.

Hobbies can act as a mental escape, help us develop a skill, or provide a chance to socialize with others; it is a great way to detach from work and break away from the redundancy of daily schedules.

It may seem daunting to start up a hobby, but you will see that it is a great stress reliever the moment you start.

Benefits of Hobbies!

Physical: Physical hobbies have clear physiological advantages because they improve your heart rate and brain process—examples: Camping, Swimming, Hiking, Martial Arts.

Mental and Emotional: Making time for your hobbies/activities is easy to enhance your mental health and all-around well-being. 

Hobbies are a great stress-reliever because they help you relax and take your mind off the more demanding concerns of daily life like paying bills and work. 

Hobbies will give you a sense of control and mastery over skills. Your self-esteem will rise due to a sense of achievement—examples: Listening to Music, Gardening, Drawing or Painting, Coloring, Cooking.

Interpersonal and Social

Having a hobby will help you socialize better and meet new friends. Social hobbies promote bonds with others and add more support layers to your life, reducing stress.

There are dozens of places and groups that participate in activities you will enjoy, and you may find others interested in the same things you are interested in. Examples: Exploring new restaurants, seeing movies, discussing philosophy, playing games.

Self-Improvement

Some people engage in hobbies that will boost their confidence, improve their self-esteem, and enhance their quality of life.

If you are thinking of having a hobby, I suggest you pick one that will improve you, and you should consider if there is something you will change about yourself or want to improve.

For example, if you want to be confident or bold, even when giving speeches in front of people, losing weight, or becoming more healthy, it is important to find hobbies that will help you improve. For example, Travelling, meditation, cooking, completing puzzles, or volunteering.

Creativity

Some hobbies will inspire you to explore your creative side, and this might be helpful for you if you have no creative outlets close to you. Engaging in a creative hobby will help prepare your brain to be more creative in any area of life needed—examples: Writing a story, cake or pastry making, soap making, jewelry-making, and calligraphy.

Choosing your Hobby

I have given you a few benefits of having a hobby, but I know it won't be that easy for you to choose/find a hobby.

If you are genuinely interested in devoting your time and energy to a hobby, but you can't find one, consider the things you enjoy, things that interest you, and areas that you want to improve on in your life.

Consider asking yourself the following questions before picking or choosing your hobby.

  • Do you like doing things alone?

  • How much time will you dedicate to your hobby?

  • How much money can you finance your hobby?

  • What sort of advantages would you want your hobby to provide?

  • Is there a certain skill you want to enhance?

These are some of the questions you need to ask yourself before choosing your hobby, and if you can answer, I am sure you will find the right hobby.

Hobbies are important to have a well-rounded life; making out some time to enjoy yourself and do what you love will go a long way in your life.

Thank you for reading! Thank God it is Friday!TGIF🐱‍🏍

Hobbies help to clear the mind at least for me. When ever I feel over logged in my mind, I just sing or write novels which I end up not finishing.
