As the mind quietens\, space opens for inner reflection\, insight and connection with your deeper wisdom. \nThe labyrinth is more than a path to follow; it is a sacred journey inward. With every turn\, you are invited to release distractions\, listen to the whispers of your heart\, and become more aware of what is seeking to emerge within you. \nRather than focusing on reaching the centre\, the labyrinth encourages you to honour the journey itself. Just as in life\, each step holds meaning\, offering opportunities for reflection\, healing and self-discovery. \n🌿3:30 – 4:00pm Finish. Pack up.
