One of the first things we can do as a child is take a pencil and draw with it. We do this by activating both sides of our brain, the right one for creativity and the left one for logical thinking.

Holding a pencil not only triggers our imagination, it also helps with stress reduction and expressing our emotions.

It also helps us to develop the ability to focus and think strategically. In fact, you could say that drawing promotes health.

How nice that it also contributes to my health, @Mevrouw Stip. :)
Drawing is an art and also relaxing that makes it even more wonderful, it makes it great for all ages.
Some of the benefits I already knew but some did not and now I understand that it can be very good to learn to draw.
Drawing is the best anti-stress therapy that we can choose because it allows us to depart from the world and gives us the satisfaction of activating our brain and releasing all that burden that consumes us daily
It is a skill that we have since childhood and it gives us all the benefits that you record in your post, but sometimes we leave that aside as we grow and others still maintain and perfect it. What a great job thanks for sharing.
Excellent publication drawing takes away our stress and helps us connect with our inner self, relaxes our minds and makes us forget for a while about so many things that drown us.
That was another great post, thanks for sharing. Drawing is wonderfully soothing and indeed, drawing reduces stress, so you always feel good about it.
I suffered from anxiety and the Spicologist sent me to paint and draw that made a very positive change to my life drawing has many benefits
Drawing is something that helps me to reduce the stress.Thank you for sharing the incredible information on benefits of drawing.Love the fact that it helps in stimulating the brain connections
I think I'll try to draw a little bit more anyway. The things you put in your blog really made me think. I didn't know a lot of things to say so much. I'm creative, but more with other things usually.
Wow... Very well described :) I really feel happy and also reduces my stress whenever I do arts.
Excellent idea. very true. Let's get to work we paint. 😉🤗
I find that it is also a great stress reliever.
What a shame that there is no translation button to Dutch included. English, my head is not working out.
@NOOS Happy Words I don't understand where that translation button went, because normally English and Dutch is always automatically translated by Yoors. Do you have DeepL ? That is a very good translation program.
