With a dash of whimsy, The Garden Within offers a new perspective on personal growth. Using the metaphor of gardening, the book describes key elements for living a successful life, offers exercises to help readers observe their own behavior patterns and thinking, and asks questions to help them reflect on what they notice. The Garden Within encourages growing the life of one's dreams by showing how to design a life rather than just walk through it, plant habits that increase success, take care of oneself by tending to the basics, and enjoy the fruits of one's labor.
