Did You Know?

Stress Relief and Knitting


Doctors have finally realized what knitters always knew - knitting helps us to relax, puts us to the meditative state, which is so important for stress relieve and the optimum health.
Knitting helps us feel fulfilled because we are able to create something beautiful in the process and relieve stress as well. Knitting is both creative and organized. In this way it occupies the left brain to maintain the structure needed to follow the pattern, but also stimulates the right brain as a creative activity. So a part of the soothing, meditative effect could be a result of this as a possibly balancing activity, along with occupying the left brain which often is a source of stressful mental activity.
Knit, Enjoy and Relax!
