A natural form of therapy

Article Abstract:

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is thought to affect as many as 2.5 million people in the UK, and has become particularly common as the long hot summer ends suddenly with wet autumn weather. Gardening can be a particularly effective way of dealing with the symptoms of this condition. Gardens are extremely attractive in autumn, with plants which were damaged by the heat of the summer now becoming green and moist again. Gardening makes people very aware of the strong differences between the seasons, and highlights the ability of nature to cope with many different conditions.

Chemical fertilisers should be avoided, as the create soil which relies too heavily on them.
