How Plants Can Save Your Life
Hardback
50 Inspirational Ideas for Planting and Growing
Growing plants and (if we are lucky enough) creating gardens is deeply rewarding, but has also been proven to be vital for our health. Gardening helps improve our mood, relax us, take us away from our everyday problems, and promote positive emotions. It reduces anxiety and stress, can delay the onset of dementia, promotes joy, as well as improves physical health and even self-esteem.
Published in collaboration with the RHS, this newly revised book explores the ways we can introduce plants into our lives and thus embrace some of the benefits the natural world provides for our well-being. Divided into 50 sections, each one highlights a plant-based activity, how this is good for your health and provides links to the underlying concept that supports health and well-being.Buy now!
