Knitting for Longevity A group in my office building sponsored a lecture this afternoon about, basically, what we can do to improve our lifestyles and live longer. I went to it- mostly in order to get some knitting in on the baby sweater! One of the things he kept emphasizing was how terrible stress can be for our health. His advice? Find activities that reduce your stress. And there I am, knitting away, feeling so at peace- my friend commented last night that she felt calmer just watching me knit! Even though she was a passive observer, she found herself getting lost in the rhythm of the stitches.
Perhaps one day yarn purchases will be medical tax write-offs? Covered by HMOs? One can only hope....
