Craft psychology - also in the garden

What to know

What happens inside us when we sow, plant, or just be in the garden? Why does it feel so good - and why do we keep going? Discover Anne Kirketerp about craft psychology in the garden What actually happens inside us when we sow, plant, tie bouquets or shape with our hands in the garden? Why does it feel so good - and why do we keep doing it? Join us when psychologist and Ph D Anne Kirketerp visits Haveselskabet and invites you into the world of craft psychology - with the garden as a living laboratory. Craft psychology is about what happens inside us when we create something with our hands. It is a research-based understanding of how the work of the hand - sowing, planting, tying, building or shaping - affects our brain, our emotions and our well-being. Based on research and practice, Anne Kirketerp provides new perspectives on why small, sensual actions in the garden have great importance for our well-being. - Date: 1 October 2026 - Time: 19:00–21:00 - Venue: Taastrup Medborgerhus - Address: Taastrup Hovedgade 71, Taastrup, Denmark - Admission: From DKK 100
