Research shows when we are doing stuff with our hands it releases endorphins or happy chemicals in our brain. The rhythmic patterns can also have a calming effect on the nervous system. This could be anything from cooking, gardening, painting, etc. The feeling of expressing the self artistically can also foster a feeling of fulfillment and accomplishment.

Benefits

My Inspiration

For the longest time it was hard for me to connect with something “wellness” wise. Whenever I would think of it I would turn it down because I would associate it with things I had tried before that just didn’t resonate with me and I found intimidating. BUT I wanted to incorporate it into my life because I found that I needed something in my life to “slow down” working in such a fast paced environment. So I paid attention to things I did enjoy… working with my hands and started incorporating things that used them. Wood work, gardening, painting, sculpting, etc. I noticed a heck of a lot of benefits from it especially mentally.
