Only show me:
Gardening is good for your health for several compelling reasons. Firstly, it provides an excellent form of physical exercise, helping to boost cardiovascular health, improve muscle strength, and enhance flexibility. The act of digging, planting, weeding, and watering engages various muscle groups, promoting overall physical fitness. Moreover, gardening has significant mental health benefits. It serves as a form of mindfulness, allowing you to focus on the present moment and reduce stress. The simple act of being in nature and tending to plants can have a calming effect, lowering anxiety levels and improving mood. Research has shown that spending time in green spaces can decrease symptoms of depression and enhance overall mental well-being.
