Research conducted at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, found the presence of flowers triggers happy emotions, heightens feelings of life satisfaction and affects social behavior in a positive way. “What’s exciting about this study is that it challenges established scientific beliefs about how people can manage their day-to-day moods in a healthy and natural way,” said Jeannette Haviland-Jones, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology at Rutgers. And here I thought they just looked pretty.
I think this might be true, but I also think whether the plant is alive or fake is also a big factor. Fake plastic flowers just don’t have that same homey feel as live plants do.
I agree. Real ones have a presence fake flowers don’t have.
Agree! Flowers are good for the soul – but I just bought an artificial fern as it is also depressing when indoor plants die! The food you are cooking looks fantastic. Cheers
Thank you. I’m glad you like it.
