A Full View of the Labyrinth




About 4 years ago I went to a workshop and learned how to build a labyrinth. The Labyrinth is a path leading to a center and back out again. Priests and monks of ancient times walked the labyrinth to meditate. The reason I built this labyrinth was for healing. Healing of the mind, spirit, physical body and healing for the earth. The labyrinth consists of 7 rings and a center. Each ring represents a chakra in the body. Ring 1- root chakra, ring 2- sacral chakra, ring 3-solar plexus, ring 4-heart chakra, ring 5-throat chakra, ring 6-third eye chakra and ring 7-crown chakra. Walking the labyrinth balances the chakras of the body and it also balances the left brain and right brain. I have had personal healing from walking this labyrinth and many who walk it tell me they feel peace when walking the labyrinth and actually feel this peace for days after walking it.
