The Office for Religious Life invites the public to walk the portable labyrinth in the sanctuary of Stanford Memorial Church this Wednesday, September 20, from 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM. This is the last Wednesday that the labyrinth will be open for public use. Beginning Friday, September 29, the labyrinth will be available for use every Friday between the hours of 8:00 AM and 1:00 PM.
If life has YOU wandering aimlessly in circles, embark on a personal journey that's stood the test of time for thousands of years. Enter the labyrinth and discover that walking in circles can actually put direction back in your life — that the rhythm and simplicity of following a clear path can quiet your mind, help you find balance, facilitate meditation, insight and celebration.
Labyrinths are not mazes. They have only one path to the center and back out, allowing walkers to release stress, to be quiet, and to focus internally. The process is a lesson in slowing down, in being mentally still enough to hear and be receptive to more than the jostling and jarring noises of everyday life.
Wander aimlessly no more. Come! Discover how truly liberated your mind and spirit can be!
