Therapeutic gardens are places where a person can support his body and improve his psycho-emotional state. These gardens are effective in combating stress and help reduce psycho-emotional stress. Color therapy is one of the methods of influencing human health. By using certain colors you can support your body and improve your psycho-emotional state.
