Fresh Flower High Blood Pressure Medication
I like the smell of fresh flowers, most people do. If I take a big sniff of one, I instantly relax a bit. It is no surprise that research confirms this. So I thought, why not have a fresh flower always handy from with which to smell, and not just in my office?
About once every 2 weeks I go buy a bouquet of flowers, usually carnations (I buy flowers for my wife on a regular basis too, don’t worry) and each day I pin one to my shirt. I built a little holder such that the flower does not have a pin through it and I can easily remove the flower to smell it.
Now, whenever I have a few seconds and need to relax a bit, I take the flower out of the holder and smell it. Very simple, easy and cheap.
Another side effect is that it cheers up people around me, which cannot be a bad thing.
