Zen In Your Garden

Creating Sacred Spaces

The Japanese Zen garden is a triumph of simplicity, a space where balance is emphasised to create a sanctuary of stillness and meditation. This book shows you how to achieve that balance, and turn an ordinary garden from something to look at to an experience.

Here Jenny Hendy shows how to create a garden with different energies, from the soothing to the invigorating; how to incorporate different styles of gardens, from rock and gravel to water gardens, from wildlife gardens to a woodland style. Exploring the basics of both planting and design, this book helps you lay out a landscape that will have something for all seasons and all senses.

Beautifully illustrated with helpful colour drawings, 'Zen In Your Garden' is a perfect book for anyone seeking to create a sacred space.
