Listening to Our Bodies,Creating Harmony Within Labyrinths Gallery

Introduction

Our bodies are wondrous. Our heart, mind, and body are constantly communicating with each other and with us. In this way, we become aware of our fatigue, or our sorrow, our joy, and how these emotions and their associated thoughts affect our bodies. We can learn to listen to our body more easily and more deeply. When we are able to do this with greater ease, we may begin to get messages that inform us about our physical, emotional, and mental health earlier and so are more able to maintain our health and/or promote our growth.

Our bodies are complex patterns—some physical, some emotional, and some spiritual. Labyrinths are patterns, and by using the power of the labyrinth’s pattern, we can enhance our ability to feel these patterns at play within us and to perceive the messages that these patterns contain. The labyrinths within this gallery offer a variety of ways to begin this deeper connection with and understanding of our bodies and ourselves.

In addition to exploring this gallery, you may find that when you browse through the various galleries your intuition leads you to a particular labyrinth. This labyrinth may be the one that you need to use in order to listen more easily to your body and to develop greater harmony within.

Listening to Our Bodies,Creating Harmony Within Labyrinths Information

Butterfly-Labyrinth—At-The-Center-One-Floats-In-Tranquility Labyrinth

Name: Butterfly Labyrinth- At The Center One Floats In Tranquility

Intention: As children, we are the possibilities that we conceive and perceive. We try to fly like a butterfly; we become still like a tree. We pause and wander within the open blossom of a rose. For a child, growth is just following the line of the possible as she or he perceives it. As adolescence becomes adulthood, we become the job, the relationship, the concrete, and many of us lose our ability to wonder and dream and feel the richness and power of our wonder and dreams.

In order to heal, we need to return to this place of wonder and infinite possibility. We re-learn to play and to feel the power of discovery and the power of whimsey.

Foundation-Labyrinth

Name: Foundation Labyrinth

Intention: We live with patterns and routines, and our very DNA represents a fundamental pattern. When we become stressed, we experience a disruption in our ability to recognize the pattern in play.

This labyrinth represents a fundamental and foundational energy pattern that I see within the human body. By working with this labyrinth, we are balancing and healing the foundational energies that it represents.

The Journey Through The Heart Labyrinth: The Aligning The Energies Labyrinth

Name: The Journey Through The Heart Labyrinth: The Aligning The Energies Labyrinth

Intention: Our energy is meant to flow in a continual and harmonious pattern throughout our body. At the center of this flow is the Heart just as the heart is at the center of every labyrinth. When we journey towards, through, and away from this center, which is the center of all that we are and all that we will be, we are following the pattern of energy through and around our body.

As we follow this pattern, we are aligning our physical, emotional, and spiritual energies and in so doing are re-establishing this ancient and fundamental energy flow.

Listening-To-Our-Bodies—Releasing-Stress-and-The-Harmful-Past—Moving-Into-Harmony-annd-Balance

Name: Listening To Our Bodies – Releasing Stress and The Harmful Past – Moving Into Harmony and Balance

Intention: Our bodies are constantly giving us messages about stress, about our emotional responses to our job or a friend, about our past that is affecting us now, and about much more. As we learn to listen to the whispers before the whispers become shouts, we can learn to reduce stress, to respond rather than react to emotional situations, and to release the harmful past. As we do this, we become more balanced and more in harmony with ourselves and the world.

Nurturing The Heart Labyrinth

Name: Nurturing The Heart Labyrinth

Intention: The Heart is the center and balancing point of each of us. When we are born, our hearts are open to all, and we wish to give and receive love. Every child is taught that hearts must be limited. Boys are taught that emotions must be curtailed and only few demonstrated. Boys are taught to take care of themselves first. Girls are taught that emotions should be curtailed and that they should take care of others first. Each is a distortion of the Heart.

When we no longer can love ourselves or others, when we restrict our natural feelings, we create disharmony within ourselves. We create stress and disconnect from our balanced heart, which is at the core of our being.

The Nurturing The Heart Labyrinth enables us to journey back into our heart, to feel centered within, and to again love ourselves fully and deeply. When this occurs, a new balance and sense of peaceful purpose enters our lives.

Labyrinth type & path: A one handed labyrinth composed of 9 intertwined labyrinths

Re-discovering and Re-energizing The Patterns Within Labyrinth

Name: Re-discovering and Re-energizing The Patterns Within Labyrinth

Intention: To assist us in re-connecting and re-discovering the energy patterns within us and by so doing, to re-energize these patterns to bring about changes within

Regaining-The-Flow—Moving-With-The-Tide-Labyrinth

Name: Regaining The Flow – Moving With The Tide Labyrinth

Intention: Energy flows throughout our body at all times. As children, there is a very visible fluidity as children jump, play, and move about in ways that fills us with marvel as adults. For by the time we are adults, the energies in our body no longer flow naturally and according to cycles of the natural world. As this occurs, many of us experience distress, disharmony, and disease.

The Regaining The Flow: Moving with The Tide Labyrinth was designed to enhance the flow of energy throughout the body in order to regain the natural flow and movement of energy in all its forms within the body.

Special note: This is a two handed labyrinth. One hand is placed in each of the open arches that are at the top of the labyrinth. The hands move in a parallel manner, crossing the dotted lines, and flowing into the heart, which is in the center, and “below the surface” of the paths that cross over it.

Releasing The Weight of The Past Labyrinth

Name: Releasing The Weight of The Past Labyrinth

Intention: Our past is always with us and may affect or direct the present in ways that we do not desire. This labyrinth is designed to help us connect with those past elements that we wish to release, so that we can more fully live in the present.

Speaking Your Truth Labyrinth

Name: Speaking Your Truth Labyrinth

Intention: We learn to be hesitant in speaking our truth to others and to ourselves. When this occurs, we may begin to lose our power to say what we mean and how we feel. The result can be a feeling of helplessness and powerlessness. This labyrinth is a tool to help us regain our power by learning to speak our truth more easily to ourselves and others
