The Shanti (Peace) garden in Bronxville, NY. Based on the name, I am curious if this is a ‘yoga garden’ I have recently had a few discussions with clients and my yoga teacher about creating gardens specifically for yoga practice…has anyone else done a garden for yoga?
While my clients are indeed Indian and practice yoga in their home gym and yoga studio, this is not specifically a yoga (the exercise form) garden, rather a yoga garden for the other aspects of yoga…more of a garden for reflection, pleasure and inner serenity.
More images of this and other gardens at http://westoverld.com/portfolio_1.html.
BTW, this garden will be open to the public on July 19, 2009 as part of The Garden Conservancy’s Open Days Program http://www.gardenconservancy.org/opendays/.
Enjoy,
Robert
I visited Shanti Gardens, it’s an urban oasis in Bronxville, NY. Robert Welsch, the landscape designer, did a great job.
