Thus the presence of green plants in the workplace, whether at home or in the office, considerably improves productivity and reduces stress.Well-being at work is increasingly at the heart of companies' concerns and employers have understood that certain arrangements within the workspace of their employees can boost their productivity considerably.

Plants against anxiety

It has been proven by numerous scientific studies that plants have many virtues, in particular relaxing, and more specifically in a professional context. Thus, it would seem that the presence of plants in a work environment would act directly on the nervous system and would even be more effective than a drug. There would therefore be an obvious link between the presence of greenery in a work environment and the attitude of employees. And ultimately, the connection actually seems pretty obvious. When we know for example that a walk in the forest decreases the production of stress hormones and soothes, we understand better why a work space decorated with green plants soothes the worker, to whom the task will therefore seem more pleasant.

Plants for better physical and mental health
