Contributed byKrish Tangella MD, MBAJan 25, 2023

Model building is a fun and rewarding hobby that can also have a positive impact on your health. The physical and mental benefits of building models are numerous, and include:

Improving fine motor skills: Model building requires the use of small tools and pieces, which can help improve dexterity and hand-eye coordination.
Reducing stress: The focused, meditative nature of model building can help to reduce stress and anxiety.
Enhancing spatial awareness: Building models requires the ability to visualize and manipulate three-dimensional objects in your mind, which can help to improve spatial awareness and problem-solving skills.
Boosting self-esteem: The sense of accomplishment that comes from successfully completing a model can boost self-esteem and confidence.
Providing a sense of purpose: Model building can provide a sense of purpose and direction, especially for those who may be dealing with retirement or other life changes.
