Do you sometimes feel stressed and too busy to enjoy life?

If you answered “yes,” then find ways to slow down, relax, and appreciate all the good things in life.

The idiom “stop and smell the roses” may be a cliché, but research indicates that taking the time to appreciate the beauty of nature has a positive impact on personal happiness and well-being. (Source: University of British Columbia Okanagan Campus. “Science confirms you should stop and smell the roses: Short nature intervention can bring about the best in people.” ScienceDaily, 3 November 2017.)

Our approach to achieving work-life balance and finding peace and delight in nature is through our passion for gardening.
