Gardening Gone Wild

If your like me your spending too much time in the garden at this time of the year, and your body  is reacting to it.  In my case, my back is telling me to rest and slow down. I found this article by Fran Sorin filled with great ideas. "10 tips for and benefits of gardening in 30 minutes" - http://gardeninggonewild.com/?p=28106
I tried some of Fran's ideas and I found I got more done and enjoyed it more. We are all busy and often when in the garden rush to get things done, and therefore don't reek the benefits. Try some mindful gardening!
Check out this web site for more ideas and great photography.
