Needlework For Your Health
Today let’s talk about something we all know but might not think about very often - needlework as a health benefit. I know that any excuse to do my favorite needlework will do!
Just thinking about picking up my latest project gives me a sense of peace and calm. How about you? Don’t worry, I’m not going to cite statistics. Just think about how you feel when you are engrossed in your latest project. What comes to mind? Calm, peaceful, relaxed, no stress?
Studies have been done showing that doing needlework lowers blood pressure and slows the breathing. How much more relaxed can you be without being asleep?
The next time you want to pick up that project but think you ’should’ be doing other things, just tell yourself that you’re doing this for your health. As I said, any excuse will do!
