Plants can help the air quality. When the air is better, we breathe better. Which in turn helps reduce stress & anxiety. There's also something to be said about taking care of another living thing. A plant needs to be watered, fertilized, even talking to it can help the plant grow & help you in the process.

Yes, having houseplants can boost your mental health. I’ve felt how they bring calm, reduce stress, and create a sense of nurturing. Caring for plants adds routine and mindfulness, while greenery improves air quality and brightens up any space. Even a small succulent on a desk can lift your mood.

I think a houseplant also gives you responsibility, you have to take care of this plant, otherwise it will die. So in a way, I think it helps teach you a lot as well. Aside from that, it can be great for ones mental health.

Well, I think that you may need tons of plants if you want to become healthy. A few plants may not be that helpful. Unfortunately, many people do not have a lots of plants. You may need to have a really big garden at your house. Only then will you will notice any kind of health benefits. Having said that, having a lots of plants and trees will certainly have a positive effect on your health.

Definitely yes, especially because of the care you must give to indoor plants. It's like having a pet or a child and it makes you very happy to see how the plant grows. At least in my case, it makes me very happy to see the whole process.

Many people buy plants as they want to decorate their home. They even buy artificial plants for this exact reason. I am quite sure no one buys plants simply because they want to improve their health. You need tons of plants if you want to improve your health and you need to be surrounded by plants 24 hours if you want to see any improvement in your health.

Actually, there is a science behind this. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen. When you have plants in your room, there will be more oxygen and you will breath in more oxygen. If your bran gets more oxygen, it certainly helps your mental health.
