Gardening activities can have positive effects on both your physical and mental health. The hard work involved helps to burn calories and being outside exposes you to Vitamin D which promotes healthy bones. Enjoying the fresh air and connecting with nature can boost your overall mood plus studies show that this can be a great way to relieve feelings of stress. Seeing your garden come together gives you a great sense of achievement and if you have the space to grow vegetables then this can help you eat healthily too.
