Crocheting for Mindfulness

Health Story

Following a burnout in 2022 I reconnected with my childhood hobby of crocheting. Following this pastime requires concentration on stitch counting, offering distraction from overthinking, whilst enjoying the process of creating something that ultimately connects me to fun and others who love my creations as gifts to - which in turn gives me joy in their excitement of receiving it. It has helped me find ways to switch off and take time out just for me whilst still being present with my family too.
