Knitting and crochet is a relaxing, fulfilling activity, with soothing mindfulness or meditational benefits – providing you are in the right mood!
So, to get the best results and maximum benefit from your craft, make sure you are in the right mood. Being stressed or anxious causes you to be tense and can result in tension issues (your work will be tense and wound up too, or really loose as you try to compensate!)
Sit, chill, relax and let the soothing actions of knitting or crocheting ease all your stress and help you stay calm and healthier.
