### 💧 Step 2: Watering Wisely
* **Underwatered Plants**: Place the pot in a basin of lukewarm water for about 30 minutes, allowing the soil to absorb moisture from the bottom up. This method ensures thorough hydration.([mindbodygreen.com][3])
* **Overwatered Plants**: Ensure the pot has proper drainage. Allow the soil to dry out before watering again. If root rot is suspected, gently remove the plant, trim affected roots, and repot in fresh, well-draining soil.([nurserylive.com][2])

### ☀️ Step 3: Adjust Light Exposure
* **Too Much Sun**: Move the plant to a location with indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch delicate leaves.
* **Too Little Sun**: Place the plant in a brighter spot, ensuring it receives the appropriate amount of light for its species.

### 🌬️ Step 4: Enhance Humidity
* **Increase Humidity**: Place a shallow tray filled with water and pebbles near the plant. As the water evaporates, it will raise the humidity around the plant.([parentingplants.com][4])
* **Avoid Dry Environments**: Keep plants away from direct drafts, air conditioners, or heaters, as these can dry out the air and stress the plant.
