Monotonous work and daily activities often make me feel so bored and force myself to try many new things. This way I do so that there is refreshment and add my stories in life. Today is Sunday, hot weather reaches 37°C, so lazy to go outside the house. Because there was not too much work, I spent my time repairing the small garden at home. Arrange it back, brush the floor, clean the wall, fertilize the plants and move some chilli seeds into small pots. Gardening is the one that I like besides cooking.
Gardening is fun, struggling with the ground, greenery, colorful Flowers, to some extent can make the heart feels happy, relieve stress that accumulates because of various things also routine workdays.
Many lifestyles are associated with achieving longevity. Outdoor lifestyle, wide expanse of sky with abundant sunlight, is one of the things that is often associated with the goal of achieving longevity, gardening, farming. Gardening maintains a personal relationship with nature, caring for nature, and simple ways to incorporate nature into our daily lives. This will have a physical impact and psychological movement activities in health care and maintaining your minds.
Several studies have shown that gardening or farming is the healthiest job for everyone, such as:
Research in Australia shows that the chance of farmers suffering from chronic diseases is reduced by one third, and is 40% less likely to see a doctor compared to workers who do not farm / garden.
Research in America also compared mortality rates among farmers compared to ordinary people and found that farmers were the least likely to get cancer, heart disease or diabetes.
Research in Sweden and France also proves that farmers are healthier than non-farmers.
Dr Masahiko Gemma from Waseda University in Tokyo examined independent farmers in Saitama province, they had a longer life expectancy than those who did not farm, and these farmers worked into old age.
Seeing the results of our plants growing and harvesting plants is one thing that is very pleasant. Yes, this is the reason for the return of my gardening passion!
