The Labyrinth

The labyrinth

She opened to me
Welcome spirals of life
Each step marked by river stones
Random
Or perhaps not

My journey
My request
Harmony
Harmony
Harmony of body, mind and spirit . . .

Book O’ the Week

Exploring the Labyrinth

by Melissa West

Melissa West manages to demystify this powerful process, explaining how it differs from walking a maze and how readers can make their own labyrinths.

The three main sections cover “Meeting the Labyrinth,” “Making the Labyrinth,” and “Playing and Healing with the Labyrinth.”

This is easily one of the best contemporary guidebooks on this fascinating and evolving form of spiritual practice.

Dear Hearts,

The oldest references to labyrinths go back to over 3,500 years ago. Now, over three millennia later, walking the labyrinth has become an astonishingly popular form of spiritual and emotional growth and healing. In fact, walking the labyrinth has proven itself to be so transformative and soothing, labyrinths are now being built on school playgrounds, university campuses, hospital courtyards, and even prison grounds.

I won’t say much about the value of labyrinth walking here because we have created a video narrated by Ann McKirdy, the author of the poem excerpt you see above which allows you to “virtually” experience your own labyrinth walk. Over the background music of Amazing Grace, Ann reads her poem while the visuals take you on an insightful journey through the labyrinth at Rancho de Corazon. Do yourself a favor and take a few moments now to walk with us . . .

Make it a week of insight.

Love and blessings,

Rick and Patricia
