Please contact me for more info. What attendees are saying: For those embarking on a garden project, Garden Dreams & Design from the Heart is a uniquely creative approach to the question of “Where do I start?” It allowed me to clarify my wants and needs by using meditation to visualize not only the way I want my garden space to look, but also how I want it to make me feel and what further purposes the space can serve. It took what was an an anxious sort of energy I had about planning a garden and turned it into energetic optimism. Especially helpful is Lauren’s gentle and encouraging approach which opens up space for creativity, intention and action. I now have a clearer understanding of my garden goals and specific next steps to take.
