IS GARDENING BENEFICIAL FOR OUR HEALTH?

Gardening, spending time in our gardens and connecting with nature has been shown have extensive benefits on our health, both mental and physical health.
🌿 Growing plants gives us a sense of responsibility, purpose and self worth. Plants can be nurtured and cared for by anyone without passing judgement. Keeping plants healthy can improve self-esteem and confidence.
🌿 Gardening is great exercise. Regular exercise has proven to be beneficial for a wide range of mental health issues, and can contribute to improving other aspects of our lives.
🌿 Being in and around the ever-changing cycle of nature helps you to appreciate the everyday and focus on the 'now.' Gardening helps to feel more in tune with the seasonal change.
With restrictions easing, we also have the facility to reach out and develop connections with other people. Sign up to a community garden near you, help our at the local school, find yourself an allotment plot or gardening project.

Thank you so much for this inspirational design, Debbie! I have a suitable container which has the exterior look of wood/bark and I have a perfect person in mind to make something similar, to comfort and cheer her. I do have several plants in my garden that I can use, including allium, moss, grass blooms, foliage and I may try some Columbine blooms, if you think they will work in wet foam?
