The COVID-19 pandemic has made us all familiar with some revolutionary concepts.
Work from home, online meetings, virtual tours are not vague terms anymore. However, what is still vague to many people is how spare time can be spent at home. Before boredom and loneliness get the better of you, let us share with you the top ten hobbies that you can do at home to kill time.
1. Cooking
For people who have always loved fine dining but struggle to whip up stuff at home (of the same quality), well, here is a pro-tip. You can use this time to polish your cooking skills. Several online cooking channels providing their services free of cost on platforms like YouTube can be of great help in this regard.
2. Meditation
Sometimes, it is all the negative energies building up inside our bodies that keep us down for the most part of the day. Spending some time in isolation and practicing mediation is one fine way of recharging your mind and soul with positive energies only.

4. Learning
Learning anything that you have been meaning to for a long time but haven’t gotten to do because of a hectic schedule is another great way of spending your spare time at home.

The general notion about painting is that it is best left to the experts. We beg to differ, though. A few strokes and shades can boost your creativity tremendously. Hence, adopting painting as a hobby can prove to be beneficial for anyone in the future as well.

The joy of seeing flowers that you sowed blossom is something that cannot be put into words. It is just not flowers though, gardening, in general, is a great pass time hobby. Hence, it finds a place in this list of hobbies quite comfortably.
