Drawing has many potential benefits, including:

Enhancing creativity: Drawing can help stimulate the imagination and encourage new ways of thinking.
Improving fine motor skills: Drawing requires the use of fine motor skills, which can help improve dexterity and hand-eye coordination.
Promoting relaxation: Drawing can be a relaxing and meditative activity, helping to reduce stress and anxiety.
Boosting self-esteem: Completing a drawing can be a satisfying experience and can help build confidence and self-esteem.
Encouraging self-expression: Drawing can be a way to express thoughts, feelings, and ideas that may be difficult to put into words.

Ainsworth, S. E. (2015). The effects of drawing on well-being: A quantitative exploration. The Arts in Psychotherapy, 42, 46-53. doi:10.1016/j.aip.2014.11.004

In this study, Ainsworth examined the effects of drawing on well-being among a sample of adults. Participants were asked to complete a drawing task and then completed measures of mood, stress, and self-esteem. The results indicated that drawing was associated with improvements in mood and reductions in stress, and that these effects were mediated by changes in self-esteem. The findings suggest that drawing may be a useful tool for promoting well-being and reducing stress in adults.

Playing music can be a fun and rewarding activity. You can listen to music on various platforms such as YouTube Music, or play music yourself using instruments or singing.

There are many benefits to playing music! Here are a few:

Improves cognitive function: Playing music requires the use of multiple parts of the brain, which can help improve memory, language, and spatial reasoning skills.
Reduces stress: Playing music can be a great way to relieve stress and promote relaxation. It can also help lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol in the body.
Enhances creativity: Making music requires creativity and can help stimulate the imagination. This can lead to new ideas and solutions in other areas of life as well.
Boosts confidence: Learning to play a new instrument or mastering a challenging piece of music can be a great confidence booster.
Builds social connections: Playing music with others can be a fun and rewarding way to connect with other people and build new friendships.

These are just a few of the many benefits of playing music. Whether you're a seasoned musician or just starting out, there's always something new to learn and discover through the power of music.
