Gardening
By Jamie Snodgrass, Tue Jan 10th

Most people in today's world garden for pleasure. Although inthe past a vegetable garden would have been used to feed thefamily, nowadays it's just as easy to head down to the grocerystore for your supply of potatoes, tomatoes and green beans.

Throughout the years, gardening has gone from an activity ofnecessity to a creative and satisfying hobby that allows you toget some sunshine, put your hands in the dirt, and end with agreat finished product.

Much more than simply a source of vegetables or flowers, agarden today is almost a spiritual experience. And it's greatfor your health, too. Studies have shown that those who growtheir own vegetables consume more vegetables in their diets thanthose who rely on supermarket produce. The reasoning here issimple.

When it comes to a tomato grown under a hot light and thenshipped to a grocery store, versus a freshly grown,

naturaltomato that you tended with your own hands, which would be moresatisfying?

Which would you be more excited to introduce into your menu?It's a fact that gardening opens the world of vegetables to manypeople as a pleasurable experience. After the first year, youmay find yourself looking forward eagerly to growing season andanticipating the taste of those first fresh cucumbers. Thebenefits of gardening are not all in the body, and they'recertainly not limited to vegetable gardens.

Tending and cultivating a garden, whether it's vegetables,flowers, herbs or anything else, provides an emotional releasethat allows people to relax in a unique way. The slight physicalexertion required to tend a garden is just enough to get yourblood flowing, and that in turn is shown to awaken your mind andcalm nervous agitation. Those who garden also often spend hoursalone, with time to think and rejuvenate while performing theirtasks.

In fact, horticultural therapy is a form of emotional therapybased off of the ways in which gardening can improve, relax, andrecharge the mind and soul. The chance to breathe some fresh airand communicate with nature is a connection to reality that cando the average frazzled person a world of good.

It doesn't take much. In fact, it's one of the most inexpensivehobbies there is. If you can, section off a small corner of youryard and start daydreaming about what you'd like to grow. If atrue garden is impossible- for example, if you live in anapartment building or don't have a yard, even growing flowersand herbs in pots on the balcony or windowsill will help.

The peaceful connection with nature, and the satisfaction ofwatching something come to life beneath your hands, will do youa world of good.
