Cleaning And Hobbies That Bring Health

“She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.” (Proverbs 31:27)

How does cleaning help health? Let me explain my thoughts. When I have a clean house that is organized it settles in me a deep peace of relaxation that then helps my body feel stronger. Are you the same?

I won’t belabor the topic of cleaning. Everyone has their ideas of cleaning and organizing but I will leave here a graphic that might help you in case you are like me and can only do little bits at a time. A little goes a long way or so they say!

You can find so many of these challenges on Pinterest and can follow me here.

My mom was (and is) the best mom. Growing up she would tell us that we should never have a hobby we couldn’t use for the Lord. I have found myself over the years thinking on this time and time again. How can I use my hobbies for the Lord?

What hobbies do you have?

My family would say mine was talking but I’d say that is more of a talent than a hobby.  One hobby I have developed somewhat is sewing. I love to sew and it’s been a great way to make and give gifts to others. One thing I like to make for others is napkins. We only use fabric napkins here. We save money and they are pretty. Making these for others can be done year round and you can fit the fabric to the season or the person. I have recently been sewing some skirts for my daughter’s friend. This has been a fun project as well.

Another hobby I have developed is sharing things I have found that I love. Some of these are items I can sell to others. I’m not one of these pushy salespeople but choose rather to share my journey with products and let people come to me. My hobby has led me to meet some fun and interesting people all over the world. I’ll drop the link here of the group I lead in Facebook if you are interested in checking it out. (We see a lot of Snoopy in this group.)

I also have hobbies I do with Mellie. Some are things like puzzles (from Paperpie as they hold such great quality) or card games (I’m pretty good at Uno but she can beat me). We have started enjoying Dominos, too. But we also like doing something called Diamond Art. Check out Karen’s FB group here. It is super relaxing and so pretty.

I dabble in crocheting now and again and I aim to try macramé some day but for now my hobbies are dictated by a 9 year old and what my health can handle. This means lots of swimming and I’ve been writing books.  You can find information on that subject here.  It’s so relaxing, though to have a hobby you thoroughly enjoy. Find yours today!

Getting your children involved in cleaning, organizing and even in your hobbies will not only leave you with a clean home and peaceful atmosphere, but you’ll be able to sing this song to them.  I just love a good teaching song!
