Snake Plant

Stress-reducing Sansevieria, or snake plant, is a popular indoor plant. This facility removes formaldehyde, benzene, and trichloroethylene from the air, reducing tension and promoting relaxation. NASA discovered that snake plants improved air quality by eliminating pollutants.

For individuals trying to decrease stress in their homes or businesses, the snake plant is simple to care for and can be cultivated in a number of interior conditions. Snake plants may enhance air quality and soothe your bedroom or workplace.

Lilies

Another popular indoor plant, peace lilies (Spathiphyllum), reduce stress. While air contaminants cause tension and anxiety, this may enhance air quality and decrease stress.

Peace flowers soothe people and cleanse the air. Studies published in the Journal of Physiological Anthropology revealed that staring at a peaceful flower for three minutes reduces stress.

  1. I never thought about plants inside reducing stress. I have trees along my property{woods} which brings birds and deer to watch. Thank you. Katherine

    1. Hi Kathy! You’re so lucky to have nature this close to your home. I’m sure you can feel the physical and mental health benefits already. Can you take walks in the woods too? That would be so relaxing!

  2. I love my plants. They give me pleasure to look at and to care for. My favorite trip to go in the spring is to the greenhouse and enjoy the smell, flowers that are bursting open and it makes me feel so good to be there.

    1. Hi Karyn, I couldn’t agree more! Spider plants are great for bathrooms too as they don’t need too much sunlight. Do you have any flowers at home too? I know perennials are low-maintenance 🙂

  3. This is a nice article, but it would be more helpful if you would show a picture of these plants.

    1. Hi Randall and thanks for reading this post! David pointed out the same thing in a comment above, so thanks for the feedback. We’ll definitely keep it in mind for future articles. Have a great day!

    1. Hi Josie! Yay, I’m so glad this post helped you find the perfect office setting! Green also boosts creativity – at least that’s what research says. Good luck at your new office!

  4. Hi, Folks. Just beware that some indoor plants can be toxic to pets, i.e. lilies. However, if they are out of reach or your pets ignore plants, enjoy. Grape Ivy and Pothos are also great indoor plants. Very easy to take care of. I’m eager to try some of those mentioned, especially Jasmine and Lavender. I have a wonderful large mound of Lavender (with my roses) in the front garden, which I love.

  5. I enjoyed reading articles. I have a few of the plants mentioned. They do make me feel relaxed and bring a smile to my face. I have plants inside and outside they bring joy 😊 😃 to my life.
