Have you ever written down a list of things you have wanted to try, hobbies you wanted to learn, but just never seem to find the time or motivation? Let’s change that and make 2021 the year of fun and exploration!
Read on to see how you can push yourself to get even better at the hobbies you love this year.
Perfect your culinary skills
Why not step out of your comfort zone and try cooking a cuisine you have never tried? Try and explore new flavours, and experiment with ingredients you may have never even heard of before! 2021 has been dubbed the year of British seafood by Waitrose, so why not have a go at cooking mussels or oysters?
We challenge you to cook up a storm in the kitchen, whether it’s a meal for one or the entire household. Grab a cookbook or look online for some meal inspiration. Waitrose and BBC Good Food have some mouth-watering meals that you can try in 2021. We know you will be reaching for the pots and pans in no time.
Try some arts and crafts
Did you know that getting your creative juices flowing alleviates anxiety and stress? This hobby is a win win; it can significantly improve your mental well-being and there are also a million different things to try!
Whether you’d like to make something for yourself, your holiday/country home, or to send as a gift to a loved one, have a look on Good House Keeping for some inspiration. Whether you’re new to the world of DIY or a certified expert in arts and crafts, you will not be disappointed.
Once you have made something, why not take a picture and tag us on our Facebook, Twitter or Instagram – we would LOVE to see your creations.
Pick a type of exercise to do every day
If you’ve seen this one and immediately lost interest, we guarantee you there is an exercise out there for everyone. Prefer to get your blood pumping and a bit of an adrenaline rush? Go for a jog or try an at home work out! Is stretching, mindfulness and relaxation more your style? Get yourself a yoga mat!
Still unsure what the best workout for you is? This online quiz might help. Whatever it may be, we encourage you to take half an hour of your day to simply focus on getting your body moving and your blood flowing. You’ll be amazed at all the other benefits that follow.
We hope we’ve helped motivate you with how you can perfect your hobbies this year. Fingers crossed you’ll be able to try them out at our parks soon!
