Hobbies And Your Health

Doctors at Harvard Medical School found people who have hobbies are able to handle stress better. Hobbies like painting, wood working, knitting, or making pottery, have a calming effect on people and distract them from everyday worries. And they can give you a sense of satisfaction. Research suggests it strengthens your immunity, and studies show that men with hobbies were less likely to die of stroke or heart disease.
