Next time When you're in pain, don't
pop a pill. Look at a plant instead
.!
Research conducted at
Washington State University and
published in the journal Horttechology (correct spelling)
suggests that people in rooms with a lot of greenery can tolerate
more physical pain that those in
surroundings without any plants.
200 people were tested for how
long they could keep their hands
submerged in ice water.The findings reinforce previous
studies that found that people work more efficiently when they can see houseplants, and patients recover more quickly from
surgery and use fewer drugs when they are in a room with a
green view.
Another benefit:
Visual exposure to a plant setting has produced significant recovery from stress within five minutes
while enhancing productivity by
12 percent, according to a study by Texas A&M University and
Washington State University
(WSU). .!!
