NOTE FROM TED: While some viewers might find advice provided in this talk to be helpful as a complementary approach, please do not look to this talk for medical advice. We've flagged this talk, which was filmed at a TEDx event, because it appears to fall outside TEDx's curatorial guidelines.

Plants not only communicate with each other but also their environment including us, as human beings. This exciting talk explores the possibility of how plants and flowers can support us in healing our emotions, a prerequisite for overcoming many of our physical challenges.
