What Gardens and Plants Can Teach You about Love - A garden is more than a place of beauty. It is a sanctuary for your spirit that hearkens back to antiquity, when gardens and forests were part of our common spiritual tradition. On Spiritual Gardening, bestselling author Judith Handelsman opens the gate to this secret medicine available to us all: the kinship of plants. "All the issues of life and death reveal themselves through observing and caring for plants," teaches Judith Handelsman, illustrating her point with magical stories that will leave you in no doubt that you can communicate with your own plants, whether you live in the country or in a high-rise apartment with a house plant on the window sill. On Spiritual Gardening, this long-time gardener and spiritual seeker shows how to find and cultivate our own "inner garden" – through the wisdom awaiting you in every leaf, stem, and flower.

Spiritual Gardening Judith Handelsman
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
In this book, Handelsman, a gardening columnist and commentator, focuses on recapturing our spiritual connection with nature through gardening and provides guidance on how to see plants as sensing beings. She stresses the importance of communicating with plants, treating them with love, and telling them what we want them to do. In one example, she writes of telling a potbound spider plant it had 24 hours to prepare to be separated. When she returned to repot the plant, it had essentially divided itself into two parts. The author reads with total conviction, her warm tone making her message one worth taking seriously. The tape quality is excellent. Recommended for those interested in exploring further their spirituality and its relationship to nature.?Nancy R. Ives, SUNY at Geneseo

This review is from: Spiritual Gardening - Cultivating Love Through Caring For Plants (Audio Cassette)
I enjoyed very much listening to Judith's tapes. I felt I was having a conversation with her, and found I responded to many of the things she said. The power of voice is undenyable. Judith is an authentic person, and I highly recommend her tapes to anyone interested in the more magical side of gardening...... :)
