To emphasize the need for plants in our workplace, National Plants at Work Week, an initiative of eFIG Ltd, is taking place between the 13-17 July.

We all know that surrounding ourselves with plants makes a difference, so why not take this opportunity to get involved with nature with eFig’s 7 x 7 plan (7 minutes for 7 days). It will make you feel good, improve your general health, reduce your stress levels, help you to concentrate and make you more productive!

Here are some suggestions:

  1. Bring nature inside: make sure your desk has plants on it or nearby. Take the time to look at them and see if they have grown or changed.
  2. Gaze on the beauty of nature: can you see a green space or a planted wall or roof – use your 7 minutes to really look at and enjoy your green view.
  3. Get outside: take your coffee break outside and kick off your shoes and ‘breathe in’ nature from the feet up.
