This is all very true. Im a non-active R.N. who no longer practices due to an MS relapse. When i recovered I was a mental n physical wreck. Solace and happiness was found in plants. So much it changed my life, gave me purpose and happiness that I didn't know i could ever find. I firmly believe all hospitals should have gardens! It promotes positivity which is good for immune system, Gives hope, releases stress etc! Wish everyone saw the value in plants🌱
Message to all. I see lots of people talking about community gardens for general hospitals to help with mental health. But what about having some community gardens for mental health hospitals. Mental health facilities patients could greatly benefit from having a garden at their facilities as well. And it would give them more fun and healthy extracurricular activities instead of just blank colorless walls, tv, music and books. If we are talking about creating community gardens to benefit mental health, then Mental health institutes should definitely be included in the quest for health and healing. They should not be abandoned. Plants for everyone, everywhere!!
The Victorians sent fruit trees into the vegetable garden but I give them pride of place in my garden, it is such fun seering the blossom, almonds in Febuary and and some plums too, other almonds or pllums dont blossom for a mounth and more afterwards and slowly one type of fruit tree after another. Their blossom is a pleasure and then their fruit is another one: I have a himalayan crab apple whose many red fruits decorate the garden from december way into January. The english television gardener, Monty Don says of the Taj Mahal that it used to have a big group of fruit trees in front of it , not immediately in front of it a little way off, so that it looked, in spring, as if the building floated on a cloud of blossom. In the storiues of the arabian nights, palaces are ocasionaly seen to float on clouds and I have seen this happen , the palace of the Escorial in Spain is set pretty high into the mountain side and i was taking photos below it on a cloudy day and looked up and saw the the palace above me apparently floating on a cloud. The english when they took india with their crazy preference for the tallest of trees and the big among cats, ie. lions, replaced the fruit trees for oaks: Pretty boring trees. I am English that is why I know they like oaks but live in Spain.
can you have swings for hte old and such: Can you talk about how much sunlight improves peoples mod: I spent a long time in my garden at one point and was totally happy , maybe you can be wicked as sin and be happy if you get enough suntlight: ALso vit D comes easier if sunlight makes us creat it than if we eat it eaten we just might not take it up: everyone knows that you should take babies out for their vit d but people dont seem to be so aware of it for hte old: THe old peoples home near me had a garden and you never saw the old in it: Dont you maybe need to have a table in the garden for everyone to sit round: Garden seats swinging ones and such make hospital gardens more like home ones. Make the gardens look like sloppy home ones maybe: they look so horribly tidy. An old sofa and arm chair!
