The following are pictures and explanations of each site in the Labyrinth of Peace.<\/p>\n

As people walk the labyrinth, the first part of the journey (The Inner Journey<\/em>) is all about letting go; the center involves discovering and embracing peace; and the last part of the journey (The Outward Journey<\/em>) involves living life more fully and completely with the sense of peace found in the labyrinth and in oneself.<\/p>\n

The large rock marking the entrance of the Labyrinth greets all travellers.<\/p>\n

Site 1 <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

As people enter the labyrinth, they are invited to slow themselves down to the pace of the earth instead of the pace of life they are living. To connect with the earth, they need to slow down, “smell the flowers” and enjoy creation as the early pioneers did.<\/p>\n

\nCelebrate the Present<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Sometimes people have trouble living in the present moment because of hurts that occurred in the past. The pathway throught the barren rock represents those hurts. The bridge leads from the barren to the beautiful and colorful. In this is an invitation to live in the present and let go of past hurts.<\/p>\n
