gardening

I love gardening. Sometimes, when I'm working in the office, and I don't see clear in a certain problem, I have a break and I do some gardening. It helps me to sort out my thinking, and after the gardening-break, I see things more clearly.

I often wondered why that is so, but I didn't have an answer.

Today, I read in "Men's Health", October 2010:

A new report, presented to the American Society of Microbiology, found contact with "mycobacteriusm vaccae", a common soil bacteria, helps reduce stress and increases levels of mood-regulating serotonin, which improves mental processes such as memory and problem solving. 

Well, at least now I know: thank you mister bacteria!
