Healing and soothing through knitting with Dr Katya Miles
For the final episode of series 8 I am delighted to be joined by Dr Katya Miles of The Working Well Doctor. Katya works as a Coach and Trainer for health professionals and people in high stress professions.
She speaks about turning to knitting during the Covid pandemic when she was self-isolating with covid and how she now associates knitting with healing and soothing, and it is part of her own toolkit for managing stress or high demand situations.
We talk about recovering from perfectionism and give our views on why so many health professionals are attracted to knitting and needlecrafts.
