Imagine a garden, filled to the brim with wonderful plants, lush foliage and exuberant blooms. There is an air of serenity, you can feel the warmth of the sun on your skin, a gentle breeze cooling your face, the fragrance of sweetly scented plants fills the air with a sensual promise, an overwhelming feeling of being at one in this place, the sensation of well-being and connection permeates your very being. You think to yourself: “I am home, I am so alive, this is just heaven”.

Then you snap out of it and realise you are up to your knees in weeds and the lawnmower is drowning in the deepest sward of grass. Do you despair? No! You will persevere. The dream can be realised. In a matter of hours the garden will be neat again, in a matter of week’s new growth and flowers will fill the space with beauty and in no time at all, you will be sitting sipping a cool drink on a warm day in the garden of your dreams.

Follow your bliss … get gardening!!
