I started a small container garden on my balcony last year, and tending to the plants and watching them grow has brought me so much happiness.
There’s just something special about nurturing life and being responsible for these little green beings. Watering and caring for them gives me a sense of purpose each day, and it’s also so fulfilling to see the fruits of your labour quite literally in the vegetables and herbs you eventually harvest!
Getting my hands in the soil and being surrounded by nature does wonders for mental health too. My garden reminds me to be present, patient, and find joy in the simple things, and I couldn’t wait to cook with the fresh ingredients.
My balcony may be smaller than my garden, but it has huge benefits for my spirit.
