The Garden is a column that touches on wellness related topics, particularly focusing on the functioning of the human body, mind and spirit of the human being and how these affect our careers, both in a positive and a negative way.

Lerato Charlotte Letsoso, the author of the column shares the motive of creating the space in The Garden and she says “I’ve observed that we live in a fast paced world where everything needs to happen fast, which puts individuals under a lot of pressure. I have also observed that the businessman and businesswoman dedicate large amounts of their time on work, and arguably very little if any time in other areas of their lives.

This is where The Garden comes in. I’m saying we can assist you to live a more balanced life by addressing these wellness issues while you’re on the move and that is the beauty of online media.

In the garden you can access the kind of information that can transform your life and by so doing make you live a more productive lifestyle. I believe that the happier we are with life in general, the more effective we become in our careers. I stand on the saying “a healthy soul + a healthy body + a healthy spirit= a healthy life” The Garden “A Place of Wholeness” is a perfect place to unwind, reflect and reform lives through our holistic approach of the human being.
