Drawing from the beautiful nature of trees and flowers, Charlene crafts garden-inspired messages from her experiences with healing and understanding. Inside, find quotes, reflections, and bonus material:

  • Pen-and-ink line drawings with illustrations of flowers, leaves, and garden plants
  • Charlenes Twelve Gifts resource and lessons learned in the garden
  • An epilogue from two other localesSedona, AZ and St. John, VI

A combination of garden book and meditation book, it is both an ode to ecology and a collection of healing, discoveries, and epiphanies.

    The Twelve Gifts from the Garden is a joyful read bursting with the beauty of nature and reflections of lessons learned in life. I have been a fan of Charlene Costanzos daily emails and books for many years. Most mornings, reading her reflections gives me goosebumps because they are like having a cup of coffee with God. They are what I would imagine God would be saying to me in that moment because Charlenes reflections would be in line with what I prayed the night before. This is a wonderful book to gift yourself an d others!

Instantly, I was transported to an enchanted island to experience insightful gifts alongside the author. Her prose is as soothing as the scenes she describes. Charlene will renew your wonder and gratitude for our beautiful earth, and for the gifts and lessons available to us all when were mindfully watching.

    After reading The Twelve Gifts from the Garden , I may never pass a plant again without feeling a nudge toward reflection and introspection. In this book, Charlene gently reminds us to live more mindfully, to be present in the moment, to not worry about our harvest but to focus on how we plant our seeds. She does this by sharing lessons prompted by experiences in a beautifully described garden. Throughout the book I felt myself commiserate, empathize, and celebrate with her in her disappointments, struggles, and triumphs. Charlene skillfully comforts and soothes the reader, while at the same time challenging us to think differently and learn more from nature, particularly about how to use the innate qualities she calls the Twelve Gifts. I didnt want the book to end, and I know I will read it again a nd again.
