Trädgården - en plats för yoga och meditation. En inspirationskatalog för trädgårdsgestaltning med chakrasystemet som utgångspunkt

Abstract

This is an investigation on how the chakra system can work as an inspiration and a theme for a yoga and meditation garden. It is not only about the chakra system but also about the subject of therapy gardens and healing gardens and environment psychology. My thesis combines ideas from both the chakra system and from the knowledge of therapy gardens and environmental psychology. The analysis and design process results in proposals for eight different garden rooms/places. The proposals are principal and useful when someone is about to design a garden for yoga and meditation or a garden for health.
