Yesterday we went outside so the whole class can walk on the Labyrinth. As I walk on the Labyrinth, I can't stop myself to walk faster (I guess its the competitive side of me) so I can finish quickly. Then, I decided to slow down and and just enjoy the experience. My mind began to slowly clear from all the things that is going on around me. I actually felt a moment of peace, as if someone is telling me that everything is going to be all right. That is what I needed, a moment of peace in the middle of a crazy week before the final exams.
I did my research about the Labyrinth and found out that some people use the walk for clearing the mind and centering. Others enter with a question or concern. The time in the center can be used for receiving, reflecting, meditating, or praying, as well as discovering our own sacred inner space. What each person receives can be integrated on the walk out. Your walk can be a healing and sometimes very profound experience or it can be just a pleasant walk. I love the fact that the Labyrinth is in a natural setting. I think its the perfect way to have a a great meditation.
