We all have to work everyday to earn, so that we could support our needs and wants in life. Although the office can really be toxic and stressful sometimes because of the different demands and tasks that we get from our bosses and clients, we still have to make sure to live up and meet their expectations. In times like these, that we feel a little pressured, it's always good to have a breather or take a short walk outside just to refresh yourself. That is also one of the many reasons why offices have decided to add some plants, both aesthetic and live plants to have a much happy environment to their employees. They are an important element in providing a pleasant, tranquil environment where people can work or relax.
As humans, we are consciously and sub-consciously affected by everything that touches our five senses. Our moods and behaviors are sometimes altered by the aromas that surround us- the artwork we gaze at and the plants that populate our interior spaces. Tending for that potted plant or even a simple artificial flower arrangement not only helps you chill out during a hectic work day, but can also increase focus and productivity- allowing you to accomplish more with less stress. Findings also show that when a plant is added to a room or office, the relative humidity rose significantly, bringing the room into the ideal comfort range. They also reduce airborne dust levels, air temperatures and background noise levels. In short, every plant is a miniature air-conditioning and purification system.
All of these are the advantages of having plants at work, although there are disadvantages but they are always outnumbered by these advantages. Please do keep in mind that we need these plants not only at home or at work but also in our everyday lives. So make sure to take care of them, in that way we are securing the future of our sons and daughters as well as our grandchildren.
