Hey Plant friends, I am so excited to bring you the super special conversation with Anne, my teacher from intro to horticultural therapy at New York Botanical Garden to discuss the biggest lessons learned from class, review some studies we learned about the science

behind the plant person connection and the concepts and use of restorative spaces,

and how we can apply those lessons to our lives.

I got to be real with you, Plant Friends,

as I bloom and grow as a plant parent and as a business,

I am becoming more and more curious

about the science behind the Plant Person connection and how to use plants as

tools for wellness. The more I learn and read about plants as restorative

instruments for the human body and spirit, I'm realizing that plants not only make people happy, but they can help us heal faster, restore our brains to their natural state and bring us so much freaking joy.

We have needed these tools more than ever right now being inside and glued to our

screens and I'm so excited to really dive into these concepts with Anne and hope

you all really enjoyed this conversation and apply what we talk about to your lives and I really want to hear how you do it so make sure to let me know on Instagram.

So here we are, episode 108. Boomango Radio.

So yeah, I'm so excited to be bringing you this episode and before we dive in, I want to say a special

thank you to our newest Patreon plant friend supporters.

For those of you that don't know, we have a community of our listeners who are so amazing.

They support Bluminger Radio monetarily for as much as basically a fancy cup of coffee a month helping me bring the show

to as many planty earbuds across the world as possible. We've got some new

Patreon plant friends in the house this week so thank you Emily Lacroix, Anna Velaz and Amy

Darryl. Thank you so much for joining our community of Plant Friend supporters.
