Fun Bonsai classes in Sydney
Bonsai has a rich, storied history that will surprise and enchant you. Contrary to popular belief, bonsai started in China around the 12 century. This ancient practice was built on the idea that if you could miniaturise a tree, it’s magical properties would be more concentrated. Bonsai became a popular practice in Buddhist monasteries, where these miniature trees would serve as spiritual decor inside their most beloved temples. From there, bonsai travelled to Korea and Japan, where different traditions formed. Japanese bonsai is the more well-known method for modern use, although both result in amazing works of art.
Even for the most talented gardeners, keeping a bonsai happy and healthy is a tricky task.

Health benefits of bonsai
Bonsai started as an accepted practice in the larger belief system of Zen Buddhism. That means it’s rooted (excuse our pun) in meditation and mindfulness. Caring for a bonsai tree is a practice in patience and appreciation for the balance of nature. Simply having a bonsai in your space will help you feel more relaxed and at peace. And by taking bonsai classes, you’ll open yourself up to a lovely community of fellow bonsai-lovers. Who knew such a small plant could make you feel so connected to the world and your inner calm.
