I think that we can all agree that flowers give us a burst of pure joy! Seeing the fresh natural beauty of them, the delicate petals, the sweet aromas and the pops of colour make us feel a spark of happiness that instantly boosts our moods, I love happy flowers!
A flower’s power is stronger than you think while being so subtle you might not even realise it! While there is the obvious initial burst of happiness when you receive (or give!) flowers, the effects last much longer.
The simple presence of flowers on your kitchen bench in the morning can help you start your day feeling less stressed, less anxious and more positive carries you through your workday. Adding vitality to your day and who couldn’t use a little extra of that?
While flowers typically don’t improve air quality to the same level some plants can, we humans have known for a long time that being surrounded by nature is necessary for a healthy mental state, so why not bring those joys into our homes? Living with nature makes us feel more connected to the natural world – something we all need in order to thrive.
Compassion and kindness in people have been shown to improve after having a bunch of freshly cut flowers in the home for less than a week. As a result of this, flowers can help improve our relationships as they can cultivate a more welcome and sharing atmosphere.
Now, picture a nice neighbourhood, the type of place you’d let your kids run free. What do you see? Neat houses that have tidy gardens full of colourful flowers and beautiful big trees kept by kind and happy people. Flowers in a community can encourage residents to get outside and be amongst nature, which furthermore leads them to an overall happier sense of well being.
Flowers are delicately one of the most positive influences you can bring into your home. Their encouraging presence can help improve so many different aspects of your lives without you having to do a single thing!
So what flower always gives you that burst of joy? Mine is a sunflower 🙂
