Sacred Labyrinth Sacred Life:
Seek, Find and Follow Your True Path
Retreat Date: July 9-11, 2010
All the Earth is sacred, but there are some locations on our planet that act as unique and powerful energy centres which magnify healing and revelation. Labyrinths are such places. They take us back thousands of years, marking a course of legends past, initiations and ceremony, mysteries and magicians. The infamous 12th century knights known as the Templars were well versed in sacred geometry and uncovered the hidden secrets within the labyrinth. Since then, the labyrinths magical effects on people have now seen its popularity grow with labyrinth societies popping up world-wide. Labyrinths are now being built by hospitals, churches and big city centres becaues of the soothing effect they have on individuals.
This retreat is specifically designed for the individual who is ready to travel deep into the centre of their Self, ready to find their true path. This weekend will be rich in the ancient knowledge and the stage will be set within the beauty of Grail Springs. We will slow everything down, get quiet, get real, and together experience the sacred walk on our outdoor labyrinth. This retreat will be rich, deep and full of surprises. Expect the magic!

We ourselves at Grail Springs cannot wait to deliver this new retreat. We have been witness to the magic of our sacred labyrinth for years now and now we have designed an entire weekend honouring the power of this divinely given tool.
Your host and facilitator for this special retreat is Madeleine Marentette, founder of Grail Springs and best-selling author. Her connection with the sacred labyrinth begins with her innate connection with the historic Arthurian legends and mysteries. She has been teaching the secrets of the labyrinth for years demonstrating how to use this divinely inspired and powerful tool left behind to us, for meditation, healing, revelation and manifestation.
Amanda Stuart is impassioned about sharing her joy found in creating Light and Love as a daily practice. Using Ancient Rites and Spiritual Practices, Amanda brings a mystical and musical essence to her yoga and meditation classes.

On Saturday night, Amanda will lead the group through a creative art process where participants will be able to create their own finger labyrinth to take home with them.
