Just reading a chapter from @suestuartsmith book & learned that there are 2 patron saints of gardening! St Fiacre & St Phocas. A quick google & do you know what? It’s the official feast day of St Fiacre! Coincidence or what! … and a dahlia 😂👍🏼

Cuenta @suestuartsmith en «La mente bien ajardinada» que a finales de la I Guerra Mundial Winston Churchill dijo al poeta inglés Siegfried Sassoon: «la guerra es la ocupación normal del hombre». Para luego matizar, mientras asía su inevitable puro: «la guerra y la jardinería».

I am not a gardener but I have always admired those who are and the welcoming, restful places they create. But what I hadn’t fully appreciated before reading The Well Gardened Mind was that a beautiful flowering garden reflects just a fraction of the benefit conferred.

Light and airy hospital rooms are also associated with shorter admissions and lower infection rates - from #TheWellGardenedMind by @suestuartsmith
Replying to @raziakkhan
This is hugely important. The book cites a study that found that having just ten more trees on a city block was associated “with lower levels of mental distress of the same magnitude that an extra $10K of income would be expected to bring” #TheWellGardenedMind
