Having private time after work to practice favorite hobbies is important for mental health and relaxation. Here are some of the benefits of practicing hobbies after work, as mentioned by the American website Better Up Blog:
Positivity
Participating in recreational activities builds the ability to cope with feelings of depression, as it provides us with positive feelings to deal with stress, such as feeling good after swimming or drawing.
Achievement
Many hobbies require setting goals and tracking progress, which creates a feeling of accomplishment that motivates you to progress further.
Skill
Hobbies are an opportunity to educate oneself and build character. A hobby such as running increases your physical skills and gives you the quality of perseverance.
Production
Taking breaks from work to practice hobbies helps you return to work with more focus and productivity. Jogging, hiking, or even listening to music gives you a different atmosphere and a clear mind.
happiness
Studies have proven that practicing hobbies regularly increases people’s levels of happiness, and practicing activities with others provides a kind of bonding and belonging as a result of forming friendships, which indirectly reduces feelings of stress.
Healthy habits
You can replace your social media habit with activities and hobbies, which is healthier and more productive.
