7 Creative Hobbies That Improve Mental Health


The pursuit of creative hobbies such as painting or knitting can increase emotional wellbeing and foster good mental health, new research has found.


A study of young adults found that everyday creative activities led to an “upward spiral” of increased wellbeing.

They found that the most common examples reported were songwriting; creative writing (poetry, short fiction); knitting and crochet; making new recipes; painting, drawing, and sketching; graphic and digital design; and musical performance.
