Did you know that planting and being around trees help improve your mental health by lowering stress, anxiety, and depression through phytoncides (airborne chemicals), boosting dopamine, and providing restorative, quiet environments? Active planting improves self-esteem and provides a sense of accomplishment, while the resulting green space reduces agitation and improves cognitive focus.
