This is awesome
It is a awesome relief of stress, and I truly feel better when I get done working bees.

That's really cool.  I have also found my mental health improved working with bees.  It sounds paradoxical to most people, but working with bees can be very relaxing.  They force you to be present and calm, and working the hives often has an almost meditative effect on my overactive mind.

I 100 percent agree

I'd also like to take this opportunity to say thank you to all the servicemen and -women on this forum, and any who may be reading as guests.  You guys are amazing, and thank you for all the sacrifices you've made and for all you do for our country.
