THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS OF GARDEN 55 Jurnal Teknologi, 38(B) Jun. 2003: 55–68 © Universiti Teknologi Malaysia THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS OF GARDEN: PREFERENCE OF ILL CHILDREN TOWARDS GARDEN OVER WARD IN MALAYSIAN HOSPITAL ENVIRONMENT ISMAIL SAID* Abstract. Hospitalisation often erodes the feelings of toddlers and young children causing regressive behaviours and stress, which result in reduced cognitive performance, helplessness, restlessness, crying, anxiety, and elevated blood pressure. Having the ill children experience a garden setting at Batu Pahat Hospital and Segamat Hospital, they showed remarkable preferences and positive behaviours to the garden than the ward. The attributes of the garden that contribute to the positive responses include refreshing smell, fresh air, good-lighting, cheerful environment, pleasant sounds, scenic view, open space, freedom to play, at home feeling, and a variety of activities. These attributes are attained because the garden possesses three factors: (1)

If you are a landscape architect and have done POEs on your own or others’ work, I would love to know of it. Even if you haven’t done a formal POE, have you at least revisited and informally assessed your own key projects? If so, what have you learned? Because of the dearth of POEs, I was surprised to learn that Teardrop Park in New York’s Battery Park City (“Abstract Realism,” February 2007) had been the subject of one. What sparked this most unusual undertaking? Nothing less than Teardrop’s gaining the dubious honor of being listed on Project for Public Spaces’ Hall of Shame (www. pps. org/great_ public_ spaces). “There is almost nothing to do in this park,” charged PPS, “and nothing to attract the people who might use it. ” This allegation so rankled Robin Moore, Affiliate ASLA, who had consulted on the planning of the park, that this professor of landscape architecture and director of the Natural Learning Initiative at North Carolina State University traveled up to Manhattan to

Why Nature is Important to Older People and People with Dementia • So called ‘green’ nature or wilderness provides physiological benefits such as better sleep patterns, improved hormone balance, improvement in resting heart rate and diastolic blood pressure. • Nature-based experiences were also found to be therapeutic, restorative or healing, contributing to the emotional, psychological and spiritual intangibles of well-being. Flowers in particular appear to stimulate emotions. • Physical presence of nature is emotionally restoring, and experiencing or viewing ‘natural’ landscapes is preferred over man-made parks. • Resting in a garden setting improves concentration, particularly for a weak or fragile person. Therapeutic benefits appear to be linked to a person’s sensitivity to the space and feelings arising as a result. • Exposure to natural light can positively affect the physiological systems in people with dementia resulting in improved sleep, mood and behaviour. • Framed with

Having the children experiencing a garden setting, either in passive or active mode, can arouse their senses that nurture their inductive and deductive, motor-impulses development and reflective thinking capabilities and thus reduce the stress that would foster their recovery.

Rodiek, S (2002). Influence of an Outdoor Garden on Mood and Stress in Older Persons. Journal of Therapeutic Horticulture, Volume XIII, 13-21 Influence of an Outdoor Garden on Mood and Stress in Older Persons Susan Rodiek Despite recent interest in healing gardens and therapeutic landscapes at residential care facilities, few empirical studies have measured health outcomes in elderly populations. This study explored methods for assessing psychological and physiological outcomes associated with natural environments. Seventeen residents ranging from 71 to 98 years of age (mean 84. 7) engaged in the same activities at an outdoor horticultural garden or indoor classroom. Before and after the experience, subjects were assessed for positive and negative mood, anxiety, and salivary cortisol. No significant change was found in mood or anxiety level. Cortisol was significantly lower in the garden environment compared with the indoor settings, indicating greater reduction in stress level.
