Flower Therapy Explained

You Can Utilize Flowers to Summon Whatever Power or Emotion You Like

As first seen in First for Women magazine

The researchers from Rutgers determined that the flower recipients in the study experienced an elevation in mood that lasted for days. And Chinese healers – who’ve long believed in "flower power" – say that it doesn’t stop there. They say you can utilitze flowers to summon whatever power or emotion you’d like – and that the secret is in the flower’s color. Each color creates a different frequency of lightwaves, they believe, which travel through the retina and down the optic nerve, setting off a chain reaction of responses in the body. Neurotransmitters are then released, inducing the production of calming hormones like melotonin, stimulating hormones like adrenaline, and mood-boosting hormones like serotonin.

Here, how you can enjoy the physical and emotional benefits of flowers:
