Hey Beehaw!

I’m a burned out academic leaving the field. I’d like to learn something new as a means of recovery and healing from the trauma of this intense field. So, what should I learn? What do you recommend and where could I start?

That’s it. That’s my ask. Any and all recommendations welcome.

Knitting or woodcarving.

Both are cheap & easy to start and you begin with doing things that are useful.

You may end up in a more artsy trajectory or just keep at creating useful things.
