Did you know that there are health benefits to a fresh bunch of flowers?
Bringing a bouquet of flowers when someone is sick, or when you visit friends is especially a sweet gesture. But did you know that there are also health benefits associated with a fresh bunch of bloomers? We found out for you how this is possible.
Instant happiness
Let’s be honest… A bouquet of fresh flowers in your home, doesn’t that make you instantly happy? Or that feeling you get when someone shows up at your door with a big bunch? In any case, it is not in your head, because research has shown that it is really good for your health.
Research
Research by the ‘American Society for Horticulture Science’ shows that people with flowers in their room have less stress and pain than people without flowers in their environment. The study was conducted on ninety convalescent patients, half of whom had flowers in their room and the other half did not. They were also more likely to be satisfied with their stay.
Roses
A similar study of ‘Complementary Therapies In Medicine’ was conducted on female students. They received a vase of roses in their bedroom. What turned out? The subjects felt rested and relaxed. So it’s high time to visit the florist.
