Hello flower lovers!
By now, we have all heard of the Harvard study that connects fresh flowers and live plants in the home with mental wellbeing, right? A study conducted by Dr. Nancy Etcoff, a behavioral psychologist at Harvard Medical School, found that having fresh flowers in the home can strengthen feelings of compassion and decrease anxiety.
“As a psychologist, I’m particularly intrigued to find that people who live with flowers report fewer episodes of anxiety and depressed feelings,” Etcoff says. “Our results suggest that flowers have a positive impact on our well being.”
