About the Event
Walking as One, Celebrate World Labyrinth Day
Simultaneously all over the globe, communities will be walking labyrinths joining in peaceful worldwide harmony and unity. Join us for our community labyrinth walk in celebration of World Labyrinth Day hosted by Sonya. All are welcome to attend. Since 430 BC, labyrinths have been based upon a single path that always returns to the center, whereas a winding maze most often has multiple paths leading to trickster dead-ends. Walking the labyrinth is a centring, calming experience that offers a tranquil meditation in motion, always returning to the balanced center. Since Labyrinths enhance right brain activity, they can be useful for problem-solving, conflict resolution, meditation, and modern-day pilgrimage, just to name a few.

Bring comfortable walking shoes and appropriate clothing for the weather to enjoy a peaceful day of reflection and unity. Hope to see you there!
