Stress Relief - How to Set Up a Zen Garden


Have you ever thought of setting up a Zen Garden? How do you do it? Will it relieve you from stress? In order to find the answers, read on.

So how do you set up a Zen garden? Make a list of the flowers you would like in your garden. For example, sun flowers, daisies, roses, dahlias, tulips and other flowers with sweet fragrances would be ideal. Plant them with the help of a gardener giving the right amount of soil, fertilizer and water. Take instructions from the gardener on how to tend your garden.

You can also keep a vegetable corner in your garden for growing lettuces, pumpkins, papaya and the lot. You have to water, put fertilizer and tend them as well.

After you have planted them, depending on the life cycle of each plant, every seedling will grow up to a plant and start blooming flowers. Soon your garden will have lots of fragrances with beautiful and colorful flowers.

The vegetable corner will catch up as well, growing vegetables, which themselves if in full bloom, you can cut them off, cook and add as items to your lunch and dinner.

The best part comes now. With a garden full in bloom, you can fixate a wide and long swing in front of the garden overlooking the sunset. So when it's time for twilight, sit on the swing with or without a partner, close your eyes and say a prayer and then open your eyes to enjoy your fully bloomed garden and watch over to enjoy the twilight as well. As soon as the sun sets and it gets pretty dark, you will know your Zen moments are over. Go inside and have a mug of coffee or tea and fully relax.

I gave you in here tips on how to take the double advantage of Zen moments - a twilight along with a swing and a fully bloomed garden.

You can further decorate the garden growing hedges encircling around except for the front where your swing stands. More ideas will fall on to your lap and you can grow your garden more beautifully.

A Zen Garden like the one I just described with fragrant and colorful flowers all around and on top of that a twilight in the sky above and watching this view from the comfort of a widely spaced swing is apt to relieve you from the stresses of the day's work.

Yes, you can find solace and comfort from being in a Zen Garden which will help you to relax and be at ease in your own shoes. You can have a good night's sleep to wake up to the hum drums of another new day with renewed energy and vigor.
