Odds are, it’s not as much time as you’d like. When life gets busy, our hobbies are one of the first things to go out the window. But research shows that taking part in leisure activities can actually have a positive impact on our overall happiness and health. Ascend editor Kelsey Alpaio puts this research to the test by trying out four new hobbies: hiking, cooking, coloring, and journaling. Follow along to find out which hobby worked best for her — and which might work for you.
