In today's episode I am joined by Alex. We delve into the transformative power of nurturing plants and connecting with nature for our well-being. Gardening has long been recognized as a therapeutic practice, offering a myriad of benefits for our mental health. Whether you have a small window box or a sprawling backyard, tending to plants can provide a sense of purpose, accomplishment, and mindfulness. Engaging in gardening activities such as planting, watering, and pruning not only allows us to reconnect with the natural world but also offers a much-needed respite from the fast-paced and stressful modern lifestyle. Join us as we explore the fascinating science behind how gardening can reduce stress, improve mood, and promote overall well-being.
