Inspiring "Outdoorphin" through bonsai and nature


Hong Kong's life is fast-paced and modern life is full of pressure. We often want to find different ways to relax. However, there is a simple and effective way, which is to get in touch with nature and feel the power of plants. Have you ever found that when you are gardening, taking care of potted plants, or simply taking a walk in an environment full of green plants, you will feel relaxed and happy? This feeling is the so-called "Outdoorphin".


What is "Outdoorphin"?

The concept of "Outdoorphin" is a combination of "Outdoor" and "Endorphin", which describes the physical and mental satisfaction gained when in contact with nature outdoors. Endorphin is a chemical produced by the brain, often called the "happy hormone", which can relieve stress, improve mood, and even relieve pain. Contact with nature and bonsai, whether planting, touching, or simply viewing, can stimulate the release of endorphins. This positive emotion given by nature is what we call "Outdoorphin".

The Plant-Endorphin Connection

Studies have shown that interacting with plants not only improves mood, but also helps improve mental health. When you are caring for your bonsai, your focus will shift to the growth process of the plant, which can help reduce anxiety. At the same time, this interaction with plants will also prompt the body to release more endorphins, making you feel relaxed and calm.

This is why many people choose to place bonsai in their homes or offices, because not only does it beautify the space, but it also allows us to naturally come into contact with these "happy hormones" in our daily lives, thereby achieving physical and mental balance and satisfaction.
