A UCLA MRI study comparing 22 meditators with 22 non meditators finds meditators have more gray matter in attention and emotion control regions and greater cortical folding. The piece highlights benefits for focus, emotional stability, and potential health gains from regular practice.
The piece notes knitting's therapeutic value aiding mood and writing while managing motherhood. It cites a 2013 survey of 3,500 knitters showing 81.5 percent felt happier after knitting and references research by Gutman Schindler and Mayo Clinic researchers on crafts slowing cognitive decline and aiding motor function in seniors with mild cognitive impairment.
Researchers note knitting and crafts boost cognitive reserves by engaging multiple brain lobes and improving neural connectivity. Experts compare rhythmic knitting to meditation, citing mood benefits and a sense of accomplishment from completing projects.
