A labyrinth is an ancient symbol that represents our journey in life. It represents change, growth, listening to your inner voice, and a willingness to face any challenges that might come our way. Walking a labyrinth is actually a metaphor for life’s journey and it takes us out of our ego into the “place within” where all of our answers can be found. If we learn to listen to our inner guidance system, we can shape our life into a story of courage, wisdom and beauty.
Doug explains that a labyrinth and maze are not the same thing. Walking the labyrinth involves using your intuition and creativity. It also means choosing whether you wish to walk a spiritual path.
As you enter the labyrinth, the goal is one of “letting go” of worries or concerns. Arriving at the center of the labyrinth, the person becomes meditative and receptive of any messages their intuitive mind is sending. Finally, the path out is one of becoming grounded and integrating the message received in the “center” into their life.
Doug shares how he became involved with labyrinths and what this practice has meant to him over the years. He helps listeners understand the labyrinth is a tool for transformation and living a more meaningful life.
