Dear Reader,

Several years ago, I discovered labyrinths. And, in doing so, I discovered a better way to connect with myself, my intuition, my qi and God.

Labyrinths have opened doors in my heart, mind & spirit, so I want to share my experiences with you, with the hope that you will be compelled to experience a labyrinth walk of your own.

“Solvitur Ambulando”

Translation: It is solved by walking.

Often used for prayer, meditation or quiet contemplation, labyrinths are unicursal paths with no dead-ends or false paths.  

Unlike a maze, which has only one true path and many dead ends and false turns and can be frustrating, a labyrinth’s unicursal path tends to be calming, and can be used as a tool to help people to relax, still their mind and reduce stress.

For me, a labyrinth walk is a way to reconnect with the core of who I am. It is also a tool I use for healing and re-centering myself. 

The labyrinth meets me wherever I am, regardless of how jumbled, confused or out of sync I am with myself.

Over time, I have found that when I enter a labyrinth with a question or situation that is weighing on me, the circuitous route helps me unwind my chaotic thoughts, and I can better connect with… myself, God, my intuition, and qi. 

By the time I’ve walked the path to the center, and returned to the beginning, I usually have THREE “take-aways” that help answer my question. (I know that not everyone has this experience- sometimes the labyrinth experience is full of insights, and sometimes nothing happens beyond the peaceful walk.)

My Labyrinth Lessons posts will be short– I may or may not share the question or concern I entered with, but I will always share the takeaways from each labyrinth experience.

Without knowing how or why, I suspect they will, in some way, help you on your own journey…
