HOW PLANTS CAN HELP YOUR MENTAL HEALTH

As a CBD brand, we’re big believers in nature and its ability to assist our mental health. All of our products come from the humble hemp plant, however even the presence of nature in your vicinity can be a huge help in relieving anxiety and stress.

We recently teamed up with our friends at Leaf Envy. Their awesome team connect the home with nature by curating high quality and unusual plants, bespoke pots, botanical accessories and expert advice for contemporary, modern homes. Their plants don’t just look great, they can be a great aid in your mental health journey. Check out some of their tips below.

 

Refresh your space with plants

Brits spend 90% of our time indoors according to the Opinium Insight Report, October 2018. Which means it's crucial that our homes contribute to our overall wellbeing. Introducing indoor plants can benefit our mental health by (re)connecting us with nature & responding to our innate DNA. They can also improve the quality of the air we breathe and give our interiors a naturally stylish lift.

Think green not screen!

Endless scrolling on social media can have a negative impact on our mental wellbeing and who can say they're not guilty of aimlessly scrolling out of boredom? Try and limit unncessary screen time by swapping out a social binge session or two to check in on your plants. By creating healthy habits and things to look forward to we can become more excited by our offline joys! Discover more about our mood-boosting monthly subscription.

Get your plant care routine in check & reap the benefits

Getting our plant care routine in check allows us to slow down and be present in the moment. Being in tune with the needs of our plants makes us more in tune with nature, our surroundings and our own needs as well. It also goes without saying that caring for plants and watching them flourish gives us an enormous rewarding sense of satisfaction.


Create an environment you want to spend time in!

When your space is beautifully decorated with greenery you will create an uplifting environment in which you can best enjoy your hobbies in, whether that's yoga, knitting, or cooking for friends, plants will enhance all the indoor activities you love.

Improve your home's feng shui

Placing a plant near your computer will filter electromagnetic energy and combat negative vibes at the same time! Plants radiate harmonious energy simply by being living beings. If you’ve ever wondered why plant-filled spaces bring you joy, this might have something to do with it.
