Have you ever wondered why sometimes you feel so worried, restless, and sad without knowing the reason why?
Sometimes you just feel anxious, stressed, and overwhelmed with what's going on within our planet.
Staying too long inside the house also causes anxiety. It's like negative energy slowly creeping into our minds, caused by little to no exposure to nature.
If you are into the set up of working from home using your laptop, which makes you sit all day and you already forgot when the sun shines and when it sets, then I think you should get some fresh air and talk to the greens outside.
You may also place a variety of plants inside your house to minimize the negative energies and toxic pollutants.
Indian Times reported that " Getting in a healthy dose of green can help you fight off symptoms of depression, increase your energy levels, and better your overall sense of well-being. "
