Celebrate the amazing work of health workers by sending flowers

World Health Day is an opportunity to pay tribute to the extraordinary work that healthcare workers carry out all around the world. The COVID-19 pandemic has triggered an immense health crisis, making their daily work more challenging and risky—and even more vital.

What an excellent opportunity to recognize the tireless work of healthcare workers that we know personally or that work in our community, and thank them for their service by sending over flowers as gifts. By opting for an online delivery service, you can easily send flowers and flower decorations to a hospital, a medical team, or to a friend healthcare worker.

Flowers are simply perfect to show your respect and gratitude during these difficult times. How about a colorful flower arrangement to pay tribute to an entire team’s year-long effort? A sure-fire way to bring vibrancy and vitality to a high-pressured work environment.

Flowers and plants can boost people’s mental and physical health

Decorating your home or workplace with flowers is also a great way to commemorate World Health Day. Plants and blossoms contribute towards general well-being and emotional health, improve sleep quality when placed in the bedroom, and can even boost your creativity.

Given the ongoing challenges of today, reducing levels of stress and relieving anxiety is crucial, especially if we want to stay active and productive. Plants and flowers can bring a sense of calmness and relief, especially as their scents and colors can evoke different moods.

The scent of a red rose can trigger feelings of love, harmony, and security. Yellow sunflowers relate to happiness and sunshine and can make us feel joyful and optimistic. And blue flowers can help instill feelings of tranquility and relaxation.

Flowers and plants are also known for helping you to better your concentration and memory. Studies have even shown that offices, classrooms, and libraries decorated with plants can boost people’s performance and encourage creative thinking.

Plants also contribute towards our health by removing toxins from the air. If you want to reap the full benefits of air-purifiers and keep your decor low maintenance, Golden Pothos are the way to go, as they filter toxins such as carbon monoxide and humidify the air. If you are looking for a more eye-catching air purifier, we recommend the Jade Orchid.

Lastly, flowers have a positive effect on our sleep quality and help us restore our mind and body. Several studies have shown that having flowers in the bedroom helps detox the space, inducing feelings of calm and restoring your energy for the next day. A great choice for a good night's sleep are Peace Lilies, as not only do they brighten up a room, but their humidifying qualities provide a vital recovery treatment for our skin while we sleep.

Show someone you’re thinking of them, from a distance

It’s no new news that flowers have power. Especially because flowers can have positive effects on our physical health and mental well-being, they are the perfect gift right now. On top of that, flowers are a meaningful way of showing someone that you care about them—particularly on World Health Day.

During this last year, we’ve had to keep our distance from our closest friends and family members. Sending beautiful blooms over to them is a great way to show gratitude and remind each other of the importance of looking after ourselves, physically and mentally.
