Did you know flowers improve emotional wellbeing?
June 2008
It has long been known that everyone loves to receive flowers and now research conducted at Rutgers, State University of New Jersey, shows that the presence of flowers triggers happy emotions, heightens feelings of life satisfaction and affects social behaviour in a positive manner.
What's more, according to scientific research by NASA, indoor plants can have a positive impact on our health by reducing stress, absorbing chemical pollutants in the air and converting carbon dioxide into oxygen.
Spread health and happiness! Brighten someone's day with our special internet offers for June!
