About this book

Sue Stuart-Smith’s “The Well Gardened Mind” delves into the healing effects of gardening. As a psychiatrist and psychotherapist, Stuart-Smith posits that gardening can serve as a therapeutic tool, aiding us in processing emotions and challenges.

Over time, a garden can become an integral part of our identity. The book advocates for the benefits of gardening for all, especially those feeling detached from nature. It calls for the inclusion of green spaces in our daily lives, such as in residential projects and community gardens. The book is a tribute to the pleasures of gardening, from sowing seeds to preparing meals with homegrown produce.

The Well Gardened Mind braids three things: the clinical research on gardening and mental health, the history of horticultural therapy in hospitals and prisons, and Stuart-Smith's own grandfather, who came home from the First World War unable to function and was put back together by a horticulture course.
