Candlelit Labyrinth Walk with Live Muscial and Vocal Accompaniment

7.15pm-9pm

Candlelit Labyrinth Walk with beautiful musical and vocal accompaniment. Walk the Labyrinth, an ancient contemplative prayer and meditation practice. The labyrinth is an archetypal image which emerged in different cultures thousands of years ago; it is a mirror for the spiritual journey and the evolutionary spiral of life. We will walk an 11 circuit labyrinth, a replica of the 11th Century labyrinth inlaid in the floor of Chartres Catherdral, France.

No prior experience of labyrinths or meditation needed.

As well as the walking meditation on the labyrinth there is also an opportunity for silent sitting meditation hosted by Joel & Michelle Levey.

Endorsements for Living in Balance, Thriving in a Complex World, published Sepetmber 2014 in UK

"This book, like its luminous authors, brings refreshment to mind and heart. It open us to our inner wisdom, and brings us tools, visions and whispered counsel that restore the blessed balance we deserve.”

Joanna Macy, Ph.D., Author, Active Hope: How to Face the Mess We’re in without Going Crazy

“Today more than ever modern society makes demands on an individual for which evolution has not prepared us. Living in Balance gives each of us tools that not only allow us to navigate through a complex world but allow us to thrive. By gaining insights into ourselves and learning techniques that fundamentally allow one to rewire their brain, Joel and Michelle have given us a wonderful gift...the gift of transcendence.”

James R. Doty, M.D., Founder and Director of Stanford’s Centre for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education (CCARE), part of the Stanford Institute of Neuro-Innovation and Translation Neurosciences and Clinical Professor of Neurosurgery at Stanford University
