11th August 2024 Susan & Beena
Hello everyoneπ€. Today, I am thrilled to share these stunning and functional coasters that my friend Susan has beautifully crochetedπ . They come in various hues, each more captivating than the last. I’m excited to share something about the therapeutic benefits of crocheting.
Crocheting, derived from the French word ‘to hook’, is not just a craft. It’s a versatile therapeutic activity with a multitude of health benefits. From reducing anxiety, depression, insomnia, and stress to enhancing self-esteem and fine motor skills and even lowering the risk of Alzheimer’s, crocheting offers a wide range of benefits. It’s a skill that can be easily learned and shared, making it a rewarding and beneficial hobby for all.
I encourage those who are struggling with mental and health issues to consider engaging in any form of creative art. It can be as simple as doodlingππ. We often overlook our mental health, which can be draining. If you know someone struggling with cognitive issues, please suggest they try a creative art form. Additionally, regular walks and other forms of exercise can significantly benefit both physical and mental health.
I’m eager to learn from you all. What other suggestions do you have that could help those struggling with mental health issues in our fast-paced world? Your insights could be a source of comfort and inspiration for many. Please share your thoughts and suggestions in the comments below ππ. Thank you, Susan, for sharing your lovely coasters.

Susan is a dear friend and old school mate ( junior to me) has been always a soft spoken and gentle soul.

Beautiful and intricate
Loved them
So happy to see Susan back in form; she is an expert in stitching, crochet and also, if I remember correct, in pottery art too. The vibrant rainbow colours of these displayed crochet do give you a positive energy and also the effort that she took is really inspiring. Hoping that she continues with these exquisite hobbies
