Bonsai trees require a lot of TLC — they live for decades, after all. The act of watering, trimming, and caring for these Japanese trees can give you a sense of purpose and responsibility while relieving any unnecessary stress. And just think about how accomplished you'll feel if your tree lives through all the seasons of your life.

Beyond the fact that succulents instantly add green (and life!) into your home, these indoor plants also help to purify and humidify the air. Unlike most plants, they don't release carbon dioxide at night and produce even more oxygen instead. (That means you'll breathe even better while you're catching your Zzz's.)
