This winter will obviously be quite different due to the pandemic, which will severely restrict what people are able to do and who they can see. Clearly, this will make it a difficult festive period and the ongoing concerns about the pandemic only makes this a more challenging period. That is not to say that this winter will be miserable, though, as there are lots of enjoyable activities and hobbies that you could take up to keep yourself entertained and occupied. Read on to discover a few of the best hobbies to take up this winter and how they could help you to cope during this challenging period.

1. Learn A Musical Instrument

There is no better time to learn a musical instrument than right now, as you can put in many hours learning how to play; either by teaching yourself with online courses and videos, or by finding a tutor who offers online lessons. Learning the skill of playing a musical instrument is one of the most rewarding activities that you can do, especially once you start to learn how to play your favourite songs.

2. Play Chess

Chess is all the rage right now due to the popularity of the fantastic new Netflix series The Queen’s Gambit. Now is the perfect opportunity to learn if you do not know how, and you can play either with those who you live with, against the computer (this can be a great way to learn and develop as a beginner) or against other people online. Once you begin to develop your abilities, chess becomes a very enjoyable game to play and a good use of your time.

3. Go For Winter Walks

It is important to get out of the house when you can this winter, both for your mental and physical wellbeing (as well as for vitamin D and fresh air). Winter is actually a very beautiful time of the year and winter walks can be incredibly therapeutic – just make sure that you have appropriate clothing and you will be able to explore even when the temperature drops.

4. Play Online Casino Games

In terms of simple and fun activities that you can enjoy by yourself in the home, online casino games, including slot machines, are a great option for winter, and you can find the best games at websites such as Online Casinos. These games are fun, engaging and colourful, and the slots are the kind of games that you can pick up and play while chilling out at home.

5. Meditate

Many people are struggling with feelings of stress, anxiety and depression during the pandemic, and for obvious reasons. While you should always reach out for support if you are struggling with your mental health, it is also worth learning how to meditate, as this can help you to feel much calmer not only while you are meditating, but throughout the day once you start to practise each day. This is also an activity that you can easily do at home and when you have a spare 5 or 10 minutes.

These are just a few activities to try this winter that will help to make it an enjoyable and memorable period while staying safe during the pandemic.
