Alison, this is great. I have a ton of houseplants (at home) -- some of which have even made their way outdoors and now are trees. (Think rubbertree) While I've heard that plants were beneficial, I never found information that mentioned specifics. I'm definitely going to look into this. I've wanted an Elephant Ear plant for a while now, but kept resisting. This is a great reason to splurge.
And yes, I do feel more calm when there are a few plants around. It's a great way to be reminded of our 'context' -- meaning there is a giant world out there and not too get too caught up in the small stuff.
