Read More »Gardening, knitting and reading are among the hobbies which can increase our levels of intelligence, new research has found. The team at DIYS.com asked 4,694 volunteers in July 2020 to sit an IQ test to discover the activities which can improve our cerebral intelligence, boosting our brain power. Learning an instrument scooped the top spot, as findings discovered that doing so engages nearly every area of the brain at once. In fact, playing music uses both parts of the brain's "hemispheres whilst increasing activity within the corpus callosum (the bridge)". Time to brush the dust off your instrument and get playing again... In second and third place came knitting and exercising, respectively, with both activities engaging cognitive stimulation. In the study, 71% said knitting helped to increase their concentration levels, while those who exercised were found to have a larger brain volume in the memory. "This year has challenged many of us physically, mentally and emotionally and so the surge of starting a new hobby comes as no surprise. Participating in a new activity is a practical way of helping our mental health, especially if we are cooped up in our homes for a long period of time," Stefan Gheorghe from DIYS.com says. "As the study shows, arts and crafts among other mobility-training activities can improve our moods alongside developing our cognitive skills. Without realising, these activities are improving our emotional wellbeing as well as making us smarter." Other hobbies to make the list include meditating, writing, blogging, trying new recipes and sewing, too. Have you ever wondered if it's possible to boost your IQ levels?
