Be softer with you. You are a breathing thing. Every Friday since the pandemic began, the Veriditas community of labyrinth enthusiasts from around the world have gathered online to participate, reflect and share in a handheld labyrinth meditation. Last Friday, I facilitated the gathering with the help of the inspiring cello music of Rob Hodges. During these gatherings, we each trace the path of our own small labyrinth with our fingers, as a way of "walking" the labyrinth together, virtually. Our theme for Friday's "walk" was “Peace for the Walk,” inspired by the Sacred Geometry Card "Peace Offering: Live Peace. Pray Peace" by Francine Hart. As I reflected on this theme, I recalled the familiar phrase “Peace of Mind,” and laughed, if you're familiar with Way of the Peaceful Warrior, then you’ll recall that Mind is anything but peaceful!
Prayer for Peace by Jose Luis Stevens, from his book Praying with Power Thank you Spirit for manifesting peace in our world Thank you for teaching me how to be peaceful Thank you for the peace I feel inside now May I be a catalyst for peace in the world May I live peacefully I am at peace I am at peace I am peace I am peace I am peace If you don't have a finger labyrinth, you can print a paper labyrinth here. Pick the pattern that most speaks to you. Take a few moments to settle into quiet, prayerful space. Ask yourself the question, then trace the labyrinth path with your finger, from the entrance to the center, and back out again, as you quietly focus on breathing into your heart.
