I wanted to dig a little deeper into why flowers help us feel so calm and I hope my investigation can help you turn to flowers whenever you want to take a moment to feel calm after a long day (or week!) at work. Taking the time to prepare flowers and place them in a vase is an act of mindfulness which is a soothing remedy for our busy lives. In the post below, I’ve looked below the surface beautify of flowers to really understand how they’re so rewarding when we have a go at arranging them.

Flower crowns are nostalgic because they have connotations of childhood days in the park, collecting up little flowers and looping them together. They’re a wistful link to hot summer days of the past when a daisy chain, balanced akimbo on your head, would complete your outfit in the playground.
