I am happy to share that Gaia Sacred Circle Dancers and I are collaborating to bring you two opportunities to experience a transformational Winter Solstice on the upcoming Solstice weekend. Both of us are working with a theme of ’The Sacred Spirit’ this year.
Winter Solstice Labyrinth Walk
Sunday December 21st, from 2pm to 4pm
Bells Corners United Church
3955 Old Richmond Road
Cost: suggestion donation $20-$40 at the door
Accessibility: the canvas labyrinth will be in the gym, there are 7 steps down to access the room
Walking with Stillness, Renewal and Connection to your Spirit
Join me for a guided Winter Solstice Labyrinth Walk, a time to honour the longest night of the year and the return of the light. As you follow the winding path of the labyrinth, allow each step to draw you inward—toward stillness, reflection, and reconnection with your Sacred Spirit. The labyrinth becomes a living symbol of the journey within, inviting you to release what no longer serves and open your heart to renewal. Together, on a quiet Winter Solstice Day, we will celebrate the turning of the season and the light that dwells within us all.
Please use this Registration link, https://forms.gle/qAoudQm5bzcjwqEk8
to register for one or both events.

What is a labyrinth?

The labyrinth is an ancient pattern found across cultures and traditions—a single, winding path that leads to the center then back out again. Unlike a maze, it has no tricks or dead ends; its purpose is not to confuse, but to guide. Walking the labyrinth is a moving meditation, a journey inward where body, mind, and spirit come into harmony. Each step invites reflection and renewal, quieting the mind, opening the heart, and offering a way to reconnect with your sacred self.

Why walk the labyrinth?

The labyrinth invites you to step away from the noise of daily life and enter a sacred space of stillness and meaning. People walk for many reasons — to honor a life transition, to release sorrow, to seek clarity, or simply to breathe and be. Each turn of the path offers an opportunity to:
· Reconnect with your inner wisdom and spirit
· Find peace amid uncertainty
· Reflect on where you’ve been and where you’re going
· Open your heart to healing and renewal
· Listen for insights that arise in quiet moments
