The Peace Garden

The Peace Garden


Set within the delightful healing gardens.  (Although theoretically this could be a stand alone project with many around the country)

A place to sit, relax, contemplate, meditate and be at peace with the world, yourself and all living things.

Consisting of:

Visual - mosaics (colour, striking images, images to make you think), greenery (evergreen), words, pictures, garden art, chamomile seating/lawns, water feature(s).

Smell - sensory plants (herbs etc).

Sound - water feature(s) (running water naturally (or to appear natural)), wind chimes, natural sounds (birdsong, animals, insects).

Touch - certain plants (soft surfaces to sit/lie/lounge/meditate on), water, textured surfaces (shells perhaps)

Summary

A large chamomile lawn which in summer one can relax, meditate, perform activities such as yoga and/or Tai Chi or any other mind and body activities for health and well-being.

The lawn surrounded by gardens, walkways and secluded sitting and meditation areas;  to allow for isolation amongst the natural world or simply somewhere pleasant to sit and relax.  It is a place of peace and happiness where one can be at peace, or find that peace within oneself.
