Take time to smell the tulips



I'd like to offer a 'Smile Tip' to my readers... just a little something that has brought me joy that I want to pass on. Today's tip: bringing flowers to your workplace. Whether you work in a cubicle, a classroom, or a clinic, flowers are a guaranteed co-worker pleaser. Who doesn't want to spend their day alongside happy folks? Personally, when I stage my workspace with a fresh arrangement, I find myself taking many more deep breaths throughout the day and staying much more peaceful. I take a moment to appreciate their charm, and the calm and beauty of that moment makes me smile. Flowers keep me present, which is just one of the many reasons I so adore them.

So next time you pick up a bright, seasonal bouquet or get a special floral delivery at home, do yourself a favor and bring it along for your day. You'll get hours of more enjoyment out of them then if you'd left them home, and you will send a swirl of smiles throughout your office!
