Having a private place to reflect and relax enhances the meditation experience. A meditation garden is a peaceful sanctuary where you can tune into the rhythms of nature.
Meditation gardens don’t have to be elaborate. You can construct a small platform in your yard with corner posts and horizontal braces for hanging gauzy material to create privacy. Consider a small table to hold candles and a stereo for meditation music. Add cushions on the floor for comfort and blankets for chilly afternoons and your spot in the meditation garden is almost complete. Your sanctuary should include items that invoke relaxation for you personally.
Perhaps the sound of wind rustling through ornamental grass, a small wind-chime or the soft tinkling of running water transport you into a peaceful state. Perhaps you would enjoy statuary or planter boxes or a birdbath. What colors inspire relaxation for you? Flowers come in an endless array of colors; soft and muted or bright and cheerful.
Your choices are only limited by your imagination.
