on caring for the world surrounding us.
As a garden is nourished, so are our dreams. "
- Nancilee Wydra " " Feng shui, the ancient Chinese art of placement, has become increasingly popular in the Western world as people look to bring harmony in their homes and offices.
Now, feng shui master Nancilee Wydra offers ways to create happier, healthier surroundings outside.
A garden is a room complete with walls and a ceiling, according to Wydra, and its elements include line, color, touch, sight, and smell.
All of these elements can propel us toward contentment if we heed the principles governing their use. " " Feng Shui in the Garden presents practical, easily implemented ideas for developing an exquisite outdoor environment.
The concise overview of the discipline of feng shui plus hundreds of illustrated design and planting suggestions, a color chart, and detailed plant and flower charts teach us how to make the garden a place of peace, refuge, and natural beauty. " " Recognizing the variety of needs and conditions, Wydra gives us many options for implementing her ideas, including these:
The Meditation Garden The Power Garden The Lover's Garden The Fertility Garden The Retirement Garden
By following Wydra's direction, as well as by letting our own intuition lead us, we can create our own special gardens of the soul.
