Flowers And Gifts With Balloon Bouquets

Flowers and gifts are heartfelt expressions that the brain registers in the same way it would language. Red rose bouquets can say "I love you" or balloon bouquets can say "Get Well Soon."

Researchers from the University of Southern Denmark observed people receiving gifts and noticed that there was brain activity in the areas generally used for reading, deriving semantic meanings and metaphoric processing. There are many opportunities for gift giving and the internet has made expressing oneself easier than ever!

Often men are the givers of flowers and gifts but not the receivers, even though they too have an appreciation for flora. According to The Society of American Florists, over 60% of men surveyed said they would like to receive flowers on Valentines Day. They also found that men preferred vivid colors like red, orange and yellow, with contemporary or linear themes.

They like flowers with strong clean lines, like roses, carnations or gerberas. Men report feeling calmer, more connected, more social and more creative when flowers are around. For example, a Texas A&M study found that flowers in the workplace improved men's creative problem-solving skills, generating 15% more ideas than a workplace without blooms.

Flowers and gifts can be found at the local flower shop, but there are many more options online, and it saves the trip! There are thousands of sites to choose from, but www.ftd.com, www.proflowers.com and www.1-800-flowers.com are three of the most popular options.

Gift givers can choose and send books, gift certificates, food, wine, candy, balloons, flowers, teddy bears, cards and more at these sites, which offer unlimited expressions of kindness.
