Tips and Guidelines on Walking the Labyrinth

Simple Tips/Guidelines in walking the labyrinth

1.  Reflect on where you are in your life; focus on a question or ask in prayer.

2.  Quiet your mind.  Let go of all thoughts, allowing your soul to be still and at rest.

3.  Have no expectations.  Walk to generate a profound experience, or just a pleasant walk.

4.  Ask a question.  There is nothing magical about the labyrinth.  It allows our consciousness to open so that we can listen to our answers and to ourselves.  Questions need to be asked from the heart and soul of our being.  It may be a burden you are carrying or a decision you need to make.

5.  Try using a word or phrase that does not stir up either positive or negative feelings or thoughts.  This distracts the restless mind by keeping it busy.

6.  Read Scripture or other books when walking the labyrinth.

7.  Ask for help through Prayer.  Pray for yourself or for others trying to visualize their face when praying.  You might want to talk to your Higher Power as if you were writing a letter.

8.  The labyrinth is a place to pour your heart out, express anger, experience joy, express gratitude and ask for what you need.

9.  Take dreams with you for clarification.

10.  Don’t feel rushed when walking the labyrinth.

11.  By all means, take your pets with you.
