Need ideas for uplifting hobbies as a practicing Muslim

Lately, after sincerely seeking Allah’s forgiveness, my connection to worldly things has really shifted. I don’t feel that pull toward gaming, casual entertainment, or chasing after dunya anymore. Instead, I’ve been filling my time with beneficial online Islamic talks and trying to do extra good deeds, alhamdulillah. But honestly, that’s pretty much it now. It’s like my interests just changed overnight after my tawbah, and I’m worried about getting overwhelmed or burning out if I don’t find a balanced way to spend my time. Does anyone have any wholesome, rewarding hobbies or activities they’d recommend? Something that keeps the heart connected but also feels refreshing?

Volunteer at a local mosque or charity. You meet good people and the work feels meaningful.

MashaAllah on your tawbah! Maybe try learning Arabic or memorizing Quran. It’s rewarding and keeps you connected.

Cooking! Make good food, share it with neighbors or the needy. It’s a sunnah and super satisfying.

Try gardening. It's peaceful, you see Allah's creation grow, and it's a good break from screens.
