Wear a flower day :)

Wear a flower day: science says it makes us happier to have a close connection with flowers.  A paper entitled An Environmental Approach to Positive Emotion reports on three studies:
1 The positive benefits of giving flowers to a woman lasts three days.
2 A flower given to a man or a woman elected more positive social behaviour than other stimuli.
3 Flowers presented to older people promoted a positive mood and improved memory.
Oh we know all this already don't we - but here's more if you like!  (And I'm off to the flower show on Sunday for more flower happiness)

My flowers worn are from my Pearlbush in the garden, which was given to me by my Mum when I moved into this house.  I love, love, love it in full bloom - it's so pretty.  And it's aptly named, 'The Bride', as today, I went wedding dress shopping with Jess....... ooooh I know!!! :) x

Loved the flower songs on Radio 2 today, this being my fave and cranked right up... it's been a while.  Anyone know the year without googling???
