Gardens for the Soul Hardcover Table Book.
Large coffee table book by Pamela Woods
Rizoli International, 2002 - 1st Edition.
Feng shui gardens - 160 pages
Pamela Woods' approach to garden design teaches you how to create a garden that reflects your spiritual beliefs and inner emotions. She invokes the power and beauty of ancient symbols such as Celtic wheels and spirals with Eastern practices such as feng shui to create gardens that are relaxing, meditative and, above all, beautiful. This book contains discussions about what makes a garden spiritual and how to analyse and channel energies in the garden. It also looks at ancient symbols and systems, such as the Tree of Life, the Medicine Wheel, spirals and labyrinths, and shows how to incorporate them into your own outdoor space
Gardens for the Soul shows how a sustainable and eco-friendly ethos can be at the heart of creating a beautiful garden, whatever its location or size.
