In this autobiographical skip down the beds of her past and present gardens, Sherrill Layton offers us a humorous glimpse of her lives spent as child, sister, wife, mother, and, finally, herself. The birth of Sherrill's voice never had a forum until trauma forced her to speak. Garden Yoga is a philosophical expose on the seasons of our lives and our elemental evolution.
