Episode description
You *think* you're gardening to get fresh tomatoes and green beans, but did you know that the time you're spending with your plants is also reducing stress? Or that your house plants can regulate your nervous system?
In this podcast episode, I'm joined by author and podcaster Maria Faiella as we dive into the deep connection we humans share with nature and how we can cultivate it in our modern lives. Whether you live on 5 acres or in 500 square feet, Maria will inspire you to grow something and gain the benefits.
