Transform your outdoor space into a sanctuary for mental and physical health
In short: Dr. Ashby Sachs, a leading RHS researcher, outlines seven essential design principles for creating a wellbeing garden. Based on the science-backed RHS Wellbeing Blueprint, this guide offers practical strategies for cultivating nurturing environments in homes, schools, and community spaces.
The RHS Wellbeing Blueprint provides a framework for designing gardens that actively promote health. By applying these seven principles, gardeners can transform ordinary plots into therapeutic landscapes that foster deeper connections with nature and other people.
Whether working in a private backyard or a shared school garden, these evidence-based design methods aim to improve both mental and physical outcomes. The approach emphasizes that intentional garden design can serve as a vital tool for personal and community restoration.
