Labyrinths are maze-like walking paths, a single path wrapping you around and around towards the center. For many, it represents transformation, growth, and can inspire peace and clarity. Learn about the impact a labyrinth can have on your well-being, where to find them, and how to receive the maximum benefit.

Also enjoy walking one as a group, or try it on your own throughout the day as the indoor labyrinth will remain set-up all day long.

Please register so that we may prepare for your attendance.

Breath is essential to life. In our lifetime, it is the very first thing and the very last thing we do. In between those moments, we take about half a billion breaths. We can train ourselves to breathe in a way that has a positive impact on our health. In this workshop, we’ll learn how the mind, body, and breath are intimately connected and how they can influence each other. Our breathing is affected by our thoughts, and our thoughts and physiology can be affected by our breath. Therefore, learning to breathe with awareness can become a valuable tool to restore and maintain balance in the mind and body.
