JOIN THE GROWING NUMBER OF WOMEN PRACTICING "CROCHET THERAPY" TO IMPROVE THEIR OVERALL HEALTH.

Did you know that crocheting can make miracles on your health?

According to the American Counseling Association, crocheting has seven major benefits:



  1. Relieves Depression. CNN recently reported that "in one study of more than 3,500 knitters, published in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, 81% of respondents with depression reported feeling happy after knitting. More than half reported feeling very happy."
  2. Reduces Anxiety. Crochet successfully helps with various forms of anxiety: Social Anxiety and anxiety associated with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder as well as Eating Disorders (such as Anorexia and Bulimia)
  3. Builds Self-Esteem. Low self-esteem has a variety of negative health impacts. Crocheting helps build self-esteem by building new skills, allowing the crafter to feel productive, providing a useful way to give to others, creating beauty through self-expression
  4. May Reduce or Postpone Dementia. Recently, researcher Yonas Geda, MD, a neuropsychiatrist at the Mayo Clinic, completed a study that showed crocheting is neuroprotective and may reduce dementia by as much as 50%
  5. Fights Insomnia. A study by professor Herbert Benson of the Mind/Body Medical Institute found that 100% of insomnia patients reported improved sleep with 90% being able to eliminate medication in a program that included crocheting
  6. Reduces Irritability and Restlessness. Crochet and knitting can help you through any times when you feel grumpy, restless, frustrated, or bored. This positive outlet preserves your relationships and keeps your mood balanced
  7. Reduces Stress. Stress is one of our leading health problems. Its effects range from migraines and fatigue to heart failure and early memory loss. Using crochet as meditation can be a daily way to minimize the effects of stress in your life
