Gardering is good for you. Look what whatshed have for us
While we may be all about showcasing the latest and greatest tech from all around the world from phones to the latest in computers. But today we are getting out of our tech bubble and into the garden. We are teaming up with the people at WhatShed and we are showing you why putting down the phone and getting out in the garden can be very beneficial for your physical and mental health.
Fantastic infographic gives you all the need to know about why gardening is so good for you. To start with gardening is a great way to take care of your body. If you are one of those people who hate the gym. Well put on your favourite playlist on your phone or iPod and get out in the garden. Gardening for just a few hours has been proven to burn as many calories as working out like a crazy person at the gym. Also, those who regularly garden have a much lower BMI. So as well as having a great looking garden, you are also going to stay in shape.
Gardening is also a much easier way to ensure that you eat more healthily. We are kind of guilty of abusing the Just Eat app more than we would like to admit, but when you are growing your own fruit and vegetables, you will be much more likely to make the effort to eat those and not always go for the takeout menu on the fridge! Growing your own food and then making something tasty with it is also a lot of fun.
As well as being great for the body. Gardening is great for the mind. Those who regularly garden tend to be far happier and have much lower stress levels. In a day and age where tech is all around us. Getting out in the garden (even if it is with Spotify) is a great way to keep your mind fresh and yourself happy.
