so last time I was at therapy I told my therapist how I repoted my plants and how great I felt after that. she told me that this is probably because of the bacteria in the soil and I was so mindblown. she also told me that this wouldn't work if I had working gloves on..

Did someone had the same experience? 
Can I just dig my hands for some minutes into a bag of soil and feel good? 😅 

Here is also a quote from an article I found:
".. Scientists made a positive connection between soil microbes and human health, including our emotional and mental state.  They found an antidepressant microbe in the soil, Mycobacterium vaccae, that increased cognitive ability, lowered stress and improved concentration.

Scientists believe this soil bacterium activates immune cells that impact the production of serotonin, often referred to as the “happy molecule”. Further research is investigating the potential of using these non-addicting antidepressant soil microbes for treating a variety of disorders and diseases. .."
