Episode 119 - Plants and Self-Care: How Caring for Plants Can Reduce Stress, Increase Joy and Improve Our Health

Plant care is self-care. That’s Maria Failla of the Growing Joy with Plants Podcast’s motto.

Plants, and the lessons that have come from caring for them, have been the single most impactful wellness tool in Maria Failla’s life, and she hopes Growing Joy helps empower others to experience the incredible shifts that come from reconnecting with nature.
