Meditative Labyrinth Walking and Spiritual Direction: A Path to Inner Clarity
In our fast-paced world, it's easy to lose touch with our inner selves. Meditative labyrinth walking, combined with spiritual direction, offers a unique opportunity to slow down, reflect, and gain new perspectives on life's challenges. This practice blends the benefits of nature, focused meditation, and guided spiritual exploration to help you navigate your inner landscape.
**What to Expect:**
Your journey begins with a one-on-one spiritual direction session. In this safe, confidential space, you'll have the opportunity to explore your spiritual life, discuss any challenges you're facing, and set intentions for your labyrinth walk. I will listen deeply, offer guidance, and help you prepare for the meditative experience ahead.
Following the spiritual direction session, we'll move into the labyrinth walking experience. You'll start by considering what you'd like to focus on during your walk. Is there a specific stress, conflict, decision, or personal issue you're grappling with? You can take anything to the Labyrinth.
Next, you'll receive a brief tutorial on how to walk the labyrinth mindfully. This will be followed by a short meditation practice to center your thoughts on the insights gained from your spiritual direction session.
As you enter the labyrinth, you'll carry your reflections with you, allowing the rhythmic movement and peaceful surroundings to guide you deeper into your inner world. The labyrinth becomes a physical representation of your spiritual journey, with each step offering potential for insight and growth.
After completing your walk, we'll reconvene for a final integration session. Here, you'll have the chance to process your experience, discuss any revelations or questions that arose, and consider how to apply your insights to daily life.
**Why It Matters:**
Life often traps us in routines that disconnect us from our inner wisdom. This combined approach of spiritual direction and meditative labyrinth walking offers a chance to break free, breathe, and find new ways to connect with ourselves. It's an opportunity to step back from the noise of daily life and listen to your inner voice.
Whether you're wrestling with unanswered questions, feeling stuck, or experiencing disconnection from your inner life, this experience provides a sacred space to explore these challenges. By combining personal guidance, movement, nature, and reflection, this practice offers a holistic approach to spiritual growth and self-discovery.

I have a Master's in Spiritual Formation from Portland Seminary, certification in spiritual direction from George Fox University, training in Supervision from Lucy Abbott Tucker, and as a Level 1 Archery Instructor, I approach this work holistically.
 
As a queer spiritual director (she/they pronouns), I wholly affirm LGBTQIA+ identities and viewpoints. I have specific training in deconstructing and reconstructing faith/church traditions, and trauma-informed care related to sexual assault, domestic violence, and other abuses. My approach is grounded in honoring diversity, equity, inclusion, and intersectional feminism.
