"Nature offers both what nourishes the body and heals it, and fills the soul, heart and mind with wonder”. Pierre Rabhi, French writer and ecologist (free translation). This quote confirms the need to bring nature inside health care establishments, because it helps them become more humane and therapeutic. This is the reason why I have been part of the Foundation since 2012.

Imagine the impact of the flowers you bring home. They change the whole atmosphere. Now imagine the impact of living walls in hospitals. Imagine their impact on patients and their families, imagine their impact on doctors and nurses.

Plants purify air in a closed environment, and they give us peace of mind. This shows to what point a human being can live in harmony with plants in his surroundings. The mission of the Forget For A Moment Foundation is to bring nature’s beauty where we are, be it in a hospital, in a seniors’ residence or in a healthcare centre.

I am proud to support the Forget For A Moment Foundation: I find awesome the idea of bringing nature inside health care facilities! I believe in nature’s potential to ensure our well-being and our remaining mentally positive. Nature is a source of serenity, of harmony and of healing; it is a wonderful complement to the health care offered at the Orléans Health Hub.
