In case you haven’t noticed, plants are IN these days. Every home Pinterest photo will include houseplants. They’re trendy! If you’re currently not a plant person, here are 3 quick reasons why you should get one today.
It’s good to have something to take care of
We all have that instinct in us to nurture something. If you’re single and don’t have a pet or a spouse, a plant can fill that void. And, it can be good practice to have something to keep alive that is a lot less work than a child haha.
A plant helps reduce your stress
It is clinically proven that plants reduce your stress. They’re proven to make you feel calmer and more at ease.
We strive for connections
In a world that is so digital, there are a lot of people who don’t have a lot of in-person connections. A plant can be that connection for you! Not saying you shouldn’t have any real people friends, but a plant makes you feel needed and is “always there for you.” It’s a natural human instinct to have connection.
Plants not only make cute home decor, there are actually benefits for you owning a plant!! My tip for a great first plant is a snake plant. They don’t take a lot of care and don’t require a lot of light if you live in an apartment or a place with not a lot of natural light. Let me know what plant questions you may have!
