Are Solo Hobbies Undervalued Compared to Group Activities?

[Hazel]

Spending time alone still carries stigma in some spaces. Do solo hobbies help you recharge? Which activities feel better alone? How do you balance personal interests with maintaining social connections?

Solo hobbies definitely help me recharge. Reading, drawing, or going for walks feel especially restorative alone. I balance personal interests and social connections by setting aside dedicated time for friends while protecting regular alone time to reset.
