A Labyrinth Among the Pines
This Classical Labyrinth is nestled among the pines with local rock of Eastern Ontario used to delineate the path.
Host Patti Koeslag is a Veriditas trained labyrinth facilitator and will share with you the history of this meditative tool, with an invitation for you to walk it. The Classical Labyrinth is an ancient pattern discovered on pottery, tiles and coins as far back as 5000 years ago. The labyrinth also has a history in Christian meditation practices with one of the most famous being found in the Chartres Cathedral in France, inlaid into the floor in 1201. Numero,us cathedrals had a labyrinth during the Medeival period. Other religions also used the labyrinth.

I found the Labyrinth experience truly amazing, I had no idea walking it I would find the experience so thought provoking, so peaceful, and so calming, all of those things. I feel I am entering unchartered territory, which I am anxious to explore, and through your workshop I am now cracking open the door. I felt very comfortable in the small group... Pat McK
...the labyrinth has taken on a new meaning for me as I have never thought of it as a metaphor for my life before and have always walked it expecting some great and sudden insight -NOT.....with your help and guidance this time I really did have a break through!! I look forward to walking it again someday. Marg McD
