Perla Sofía Curbelo-Santiago
More and more people are turning to nature to recharge. Whether you have a patio, a balcony, or a small corner by the window, you’ll discover how to create a space that supports relaxation and meaningful pauses. But simply adding plants to a room or intimate outdoor space doesn’t guarantee rest or well-being.
In this thoughtful and inspiring session, you’ll learn what truly makes a Garden Break Room effective. Through stories, research-backed insights, and real examples from both home and office settings, author and garden communicator Perla Sofía Curbelo-Santiago will guide you through the essential elements—both visible and invisible—that help people feel restored, not just impressed.
