Celebrating Social Work Month . . . Flowers At Work

I was so engrossed in the presentation that I forgot all about taking pictures of happy social workers!   You really do need to recruit a substitute photographer when you are the hostess/trainer and  your right-hand man is home sick with the flu.   

We talked about some research that supports the idea that flowers trigger positive moods, increase social behaviors, speed healing,  increase productivity, and even help improve our memory.    So it could be that the flower's job is to make people happy and healthy.   And we thought a flower was just a pretty face . . .
