CALIFORNIA LABYRINTH SUMMER SCHOOL: WORKSHOP: The Parable of the Labyrinth: Walking the Labyrinth as a Spiritual Practice with Lauren Artress

There must always be two kinds of art, escape art, for one needs escape as he or she needs food and deep sleep, and parable art, the art, which shall teach (humans) to unlearn hatred and learn love. ~W.H. Auden

Spiritual practices are gaining in popularity during these chaotic times. The quiet the mind, open the heart and teach skills to navigate one’s interior world. Spiritual practices can be a ‘secular’ as knitting, or as sacred as icon painting. We will look at the broad array of practices and then focus specifically upon walking the labyrinth. The labyrinth is a three dimensional parable that teaches us, through our imaginations what we need to learn along the path of life.

You may have walked the labyrinth but never had a formal introduction to it, or, you may feel like a ‘failed’ meditator who could not quiet the mind during sitting meditation. All are welcome; please join me!

This is a qualifying workshop and would serve as a solid introduction to the Facilitator Training that follows this workshop.
