Labyrinth Information

The Berea College labyrinth! So what is that?

We invite you to use this sacred space often. It is a place to pray, meditate or just be still; a place to find peace, joy and spiritual wellness.

Some general guidelines for walking a labyrinth:

Focus: Pause and wait at the entrance. Become quiet and centered. Give acknowledgment through a bow, nod, or other gesture and then enter.

Experience: Walk purposefully. Observe the process. When you reach the center, stay there and focus several moments. Leave when it seems appropriate. Be attentive on the way out.

Exit: Turn and face the entrance. Give an acknowledgement of ending, such as a nod, a bow, or an Amen.

Reflect: After walking the labyrinth reflect back on your experience. Use journaling or drawing to capture your experience.

Walk often.

“Your life is a sacred journey. And it is about change, growth, discovery, movement, transformation, continuously expanding your vision of what is possible, stretching your soul, learning to see clearly and deeply, listening to your intuition, taking courageous challenges at every step along the way. You are on the path… exactly where you are meant to be right now… And from here, you can only go forward, shaping your life story into a magnificent tale of triumph, of healing, of courage, of beauty, of wisdom, of power, of dignity, and of love.”
