You will find this labyrinth outside of the Harmony Grove United Methodist Church just a short walk from the parking lot and the graveyard. The path is created with bricks listing dedications with a pebble path. As you walk the path, be sure to take note of these.
"The labyrinth is a spiritual tool that... reduces stress, quiets the mind, and opens the heart."
"It is a path of prayer, a walking meditation, a crucible for change, a watering hole for the spirit and a mirror for the soul."
A labyrinth has a single winding, circuitous path that you walk to the center. Then you walk the same path back out. It is a tool for prayer, reflection, contemplation, and meditation. A labyrinth is not a maze. A labyrinth has only one defined path with no dead ends or tricks. You cannot get lost in a labyrinth!
There is no right way or wrong way to walk a labyrinth, there are no rules to follow and nothing you need to know. Take a few deep breaths, to center yourself and begin walking.
On your walk in, relax, let go, and allow your mind to calm. At the center, spend as long as you want in prayer, reflection, meditation, contemplation, or just in quiet time. On the walk out, allow yourself to bring your experience with you to the outside environment.
Different people experience the labyrinth in different ways. The same person will experience the labyrinth differently on different days and at different times. Sometimes your expectation can actually get in the way of your labyrinth experience. Do not expect anything, just enjoy the walk.
Several people might be walking the labyrinth at the same time. It is okay to meet others, pass others, or be passed by others. Walk at your own pace.
