52 Weeks of Happier Homeschooling Week 6: Buy Yourself Some Flowers

52 Weeks of Happier Homeschooling Week 6: Buy Yourself Some Flowers

Money can’t buy happiness—but a few bucks can buy a grocery store bouquet of flowers, and one little blooming vase can have a surprisingly big impact on your everyday happiness. 

Just looking at flowers every morning can boost happiness and energy, promote creativity, improve the atmosphere of your workspace, and reduce anxiety and stress all day long. It’s hard to imagine that one vase of flowers can make your homeschool work better and feel better, but that little bouquet really can make a big difference.

It’s not always big things that make your homeschool a happier place. Arrange some flowers in your primary learning space, and enjoy them while you drink your morning coffee. One little vase delivers benefits, but if you enjoy arranging flowers, you could certainly add more to the mix.

Your challenge this week: Buy yourself some flowers and arrange them in your favorite learning space.
