Work Hard, Play Hard. This is the motto you will often hear repeated in the bustling, incredibly fasted-paced city of Hong Kong. With housing prices skyrocketing, for many life has become much more focused on the “Work Hard” and less so on the “Play Hard” portion. Having time to relax and pursue a hobby or two is very important however, both for your body and for your mental health. Having a hobby is not just a way to pass the time; it can also improve the quality of your life. Keeping your mind active by engaging in brain stimulating activities has been linked to a reduced risk of Alzheimer’s disease, along with adapting other key lifestyle habits.
So give yourself some well-deserved downtime, while engaging and challenging your mind at the same time. Multitasking at its finest! Here are a few suggested hobbies that will help stimulate your brain:
Play a musical instrument
Boost your creativity, analytical skills, memory, problem solving, and fine motor skills by playing a musical instrument! Playing music strengthens the corpus callosum, the link between the two halves of your brain which is responsible for creating new connections. Musicians also learn how to multitask, pay attention to detail and quickly handle both cognitive and emotional elements simultaneously. All of this helps your brain stay focused and sharp.
Reading
The bonus here is that reading anything, from the latest Wall Street Journal to Harry Potter, will benefit you. Reading reduces stress, improves your vocabulary and language skills, and much more. It's been proven that people who read literary fiction show higher levels of empathy and emotional intelligence, which in turn boosts your communication skills. Communication skills play an important role in the workplace.
Puzzles and Games
Workout your brain with your favorite brain stimulating activity; including Sudoku, crossword puzzles, board games, video games, card games, and other similar activities. These types of hobbies increase neuroplasticity, which basically helps optimize your brain by assisting with a wide variety of changes in neural pathways and synapses. This can help improve your ability to see things from different points-of-view and become more aware of new patterns, as well as boosting cognitive abilities.
