钩针编织对身体和精神的益处

Crochet is a great way to improve fine motor skills and eye-hand coordination. Systematic crochet exercises help develop self-control and regulate hand movements, not only under visual control, but also more autonomously [1]. Crochet involves fine motor skills, which emphasize motor control, precision and accuracy of movement, making it a great activity for improving motor coordination and dexterity [2]. Crochet also develops spatial perception and fine motor skills, making it a great activity for individuals of all ages [3]. Thus, incorporating crochet into one’s routine can lead to improved physical health and motor function.

Crochet has also been found to have a positive impact on mental health, specifically in reducing stress and anxiety levels. A study published in The Lancet looked at the impact of various parenting programs on mental health and found that crochet helped relieve stress and improve overall well-being [4]. In addition, crocheting has been shown to increase levels of serotonin in the body, which is the neurotransmitter responsible for feelings of happiness and well-being [5]. Other studies suggest that crochet can prevent degenerative diseases and improve self-esteem and creativity. Thus, incorporating crochet into one’s routine can lead to improved mental health and overall well-being.

Crochet has also been found to improve cognitive function and memory retention. A 2011 study found that crochet can be used as a therapeutic practice to boost cognitive function and memory retention [6]. Although some individuals may have a genetic predisposition for better memory retention, crochet can be used as a tool to improve memory retention for the general population [7]. In addition, crochet can help prevent cognitive decline and improve overall cognitive function [8]. Thus, incorporating crochet into one’s routine may lead to improved cognitive function and memory retention.

 

1. improve concentration
Manual activities require a lot of attention and concentration, and over time this habit will lead to greater focus in your practice and in other areas of your life. That said, it is great for people who have difficulty concentrating, or when they are very agitated and anxious. You enter a world where you forget everything and can focus even if you are standing still waiting for the subway.

2. Reduce stress.
The brain chemistry changes during and after weaving. In this sense, in addition to reducing stress-inducing hormones, serotonin and dopamine levels increase during activity. These hormones are responsible for feelings of well-being and pleasure, which means that you feel relaxed, content, and happy after spending time on your creations.

Also, because of the focus required, you enter a different world and forget everything around you, including your problems.

3. You are more relaxed
Crocheting is a repetitive motion, and did you know that it helps to calm the heart and lower blood pressure? So our sense of comfort and relaxation increases.

4. Elevated self-esteem
There is a great feeling of joy and pride in being able to create something from scratch. It creates a sense of accomplishment and room to express ourselves, which helps to increase our self-esteem. Either way, we feel productive and useful, transcending the boundaries of crocheting and changing the way we see ourselves.

5. Accurate vision
The practice still requires exercising the eye, and the precision (accuracy) of vision improves over time. It also lubricates the eyes better, thus preventing cataract problems and even degeneration of this vital organ.
