Fibro-Friendly Hobbies: Recommendations Needed!

What hobbies would you recommend that are fibro friendly, especially pain and brain fog? I want to start having fun again! I really like embroidery and reading, but both have become tricky, reading especially so.

Maybe an instrument? I play guitar and ukulele, although sometimes the chords are tough on my fibromyalgia, I still like it!

I have been sewing for decades. I find I can do many of the steps of making a quilt while sitting in my recliner.

I'm listening to an audiobook rn. Mobile puzzle and word searches and even match 3 games are great for the fog

I'm not a reader, I like crafts that are quick, although my favorite is wood crafting, like woodburning or woodcarving.
