Fun Friday – 3 Hobbies to begin during menopause

Do you have a hobby? Have you ever said, “I’ll start a new hobby when I retire?” You may have heard me say this before, but menopause is a season all on its own. Why not have a hobby related to this less than popular season?

Just for fun, here are 3 hobbies I recommend during the menopausal season. If this season does not apply to you, feel free to share the information with a friend or loved one.

1.      Art – drawing, painting, sketching, these are all good skills to have in your repertoire. This skill will come in handy when it’s time to draw on your eyebrows. You may need a little extra creativity is there are grey hairs present.

2.      Heating and Cooling – learn as much as you can about heating and cooling. On cold days you’ll be hot, on hot days you’ll be hot. Every now and then you’ll also be cool. You will need to be sure you can find balance in your home, your car, work, wherever you travel.

3.      Gardening – plant a garden of natural foods that may help ease some of the symptoms of menopause (night sweats, hot flashes, etc.).

Now that I think about it, don’t wait for the season of menopause to begin a hobby. Start now, try something that you’ve always wanted to do. You can always tie it into the menopause season later to help take your mind off of any discomfort.

What out of the ordinary type of hobbies would you add to the list of hobbies to begin during menopause?
