| The Sacred Labyrinth Walk |
| The Sacred Labyrinth Walk, Illuminating the Inner Path, is the ancient practice of "Circling to the Center" by walking the labyrinth. The rediscovery of this self alignment tool to put our lives in perspective is one of the most important spiritual movements of our day. Labyrinths have been in use for over 4000 years. Their basic design is fundamental to nature and many cultures and religious traditions. Whatever one's religion...walking the labyrinth clears the mind and gives insight. It calms people in the throes of life's transitions. |

| Introduction to the Idea of the labyrinth - labyreims |
| The idea of the labyrinth is made up of several aspects which one has to be able to distinguish. These different facets correspond to different meanings of the word, which are often confused by many authors, so that a kind of contamination happens between the different meanings. The result of that is that the discourse about the labyrinth has become very obscure and complicated, principally because of the metaphorical and symbolical dimensions of the labyrinth, whereas the actual phenomenon is relatively simple. |

| Labyrinths - Crystalinks |
| A labyrinth is an ancient symbol that relates to wholeness. It combines the imagery of the circle and the spiral into a meandering but purposeful path. It represents a journey to our own center and back again out into the world. Labyrinths have long been used as meditation and prayer tools. A labyrinth is an archetype with which we can have a direct experience. Walking the labyrinth can be considered an initiation in which one awakens the knowledge encoded within their DNA. |
