Even if it's not having any effect on my memory I find that it's a great de-stresser. I expect that it's far easier to remember things when your mind isn't all clogged up by the nonsense of the day. It certainly does have a decluttering effect.<BR/><BR/>I have read somewhere that plants are very good for removing negativity. In a similar way to how they take CO2 and give us oxygen (please note that this is an analogy - not science) they take in negativity. The bloke who I heard talking about it said that plants recycle what we don't use or expel. He recommended that if you meditate for 20 minutes a day you should do so near a plant and direct your negative energy away from you and into the plant. Apparently they thrive on it. He also suggested for a quick fix if your feeling edgy to walk around on some grass in your bare feet. Personally, I won't be doing that again till May but I have done it and it actually does work.<BR/><BR/>Beautiful pic FH.<BR/><BR/>Oh and Whirl I'm looking forward to going on your walk in Spring.JaneyVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04951739945670483199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289273.post-30980702933039165632009-01-08T12:21:00.000+00:002009-01-08T12:21:00.000+00:00I haven't been walking in weeks - no wonder I'm in...I haven't been walking in weeks - no wonder I'm in disarray.

I think it's bracken, which we have a lot of round here. <BR/><BR/>Glad the post brought up a good memory.<BR/><BR/><B>Whirl</B> You're so lucky. I used to live a few minutes walk from Nonsuch Park and I do miss it. <BR/><BR/>We have Ashstead Common very near us now, and the duck pond at the edge of the Common is great, but the Common itself is so heavily wooded that you can't see for any distance and I don't enjoy that very much. I like my nature tamed.<BR/><BR/>I'd love to see photos of the landscape near you.fairyhedgehoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14141089706966852951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289273.post-83728968079134786202009-01-08T10:41:00.000+00:002009-01-08T10:41:00.000+00:00This looks fantastic.

It looks like a nice place during my favorite time of the year.<BR/><BR/>I had not heard about the walk, but it makes sense. It seems to me I recall reading/hearing research which said employees with windows fared better than those without.<BR/><BR/>If staring at an aquarium is emotionally healthy (I have read that it is), and having a cat or dog sit at your side/on your lap is, too, then I should expect having an indoor plant is good, too. <BR/><BR/>I remember working in an office back in the 80s. There was a philodendron (sp?) near my desk. I'm not a plant person, per se, but I found myself taking care of it with a feeling of satisfaction.<BR/><BR/>See. Your memory service worked. <BR/><BR/>Thanks, FH.Beviehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04285435228657659873noreply@blogger.com
