Sometimes you may feel guilty for taking time out for yourself, but by doing so can re-energize you, increase serotonin, and reduce stress. Check out these seven hobbies to help reduce stress & have fun.

Painting

You don’t have to be the next Picasso to enjoy this soothing hobby. You can learn some great tips and tricks from going to a painting class like the ones offered by Yaymaker. At these classes, everything is provided for you. All you do is simply show up and paint!

If you want to paint at home, you can get great painting supplies and paint from places like Michael’s, Hobby Lobby, or Walmart. Thanks to YouTube, you can check out painting videos and learn in the comfort of your living room if you choose.
