Can Gardening Replace Weight Loss Jabs?

In this video, Bunny shares how many calories you can burn through everyday gardening tasks, from digging and planting to lifting and weeding. She explains how to lift heavy loads safely by engaging your core muscles, how gardening can increase your health span (not just your lifespan), and why working outdoors brings such joy and mirthfulness to her life. She also reveals how she uses simple vagus nerve calming techniques to steady herself before recording Gardeners’ Question Time, and shows that gardening nurtures the mind as much as the body. After co-authoring Garden Your Way to Health and Fitness with Jacqueline Knox in 2008, Bunny became convinced of one thing: gardening isn’t just good for your garden — it’s one of the most sustainable ways to increase your health span, and overall wellbeing. If you’re looking for a natural, enjoyable way to stay fit and feel good, this might just inspire you to pick up a spade. #gardening #weightloss #health
