Let's Get Down and Dirty with some Horticultural Therapy. Creative Copes Season 1, Episode 5.

In this episode, we learn about soil/dirt, flowers, plants, the art of being at one with the earth and how Ms. Mother Nature can help people get better. We share some laughs about idiosyncrasies we have involving shaving and ambulance rides, Scandanavian sun chants and our hunt for helpful bacteria to roll around in. We discuss the roots of Horticultural Therapy and how to become an actual therapist in this field. Then we dig deeper into all the positive components gardening has to offer. You do not need a large plot of land, you do not need a degree to build something healing and soulfully beneficial.... just a little space and a little imagination. It does not have to be expensive or take up a lot of effort. The beautiful parts of gardening are that you are your own boss. If color is your jam, go for bright and vibrant flowers. If essential oils and homeopathic scents are your secret to decreased stress, an herbal garden might be your forte. If you enjoy being health conscious and want to join the farm to table movement, maybe consider planting your own vegetable garden. The options are limitless. If peaceful, content and grounded are adjectives you'd like to use to describe your life moving forward, this episode is for you. So get outside... "There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad choice of clothing". Dress Accordingly and enjoy this episode.
