Introductory Walk with Art Mandalas Pay by PayPal Facilatator: Jan Hornford Cost: $40 Bring Brown Bag lunch Bring your own drinking water Refreshments provided (tea, coffee, juice) Biography: Jan Hornford is a Veriditas Certified Labyrinth Facilitator (www.veridtias.org) and a Master Certified Retreat Coach whose passion is to help you reconnect with the heart and soul of who you are. Her programs speak to your imaginative, intuitive, and spiritual nature and include expressive arts, walking in nature, labyrinths, and horse guided learning as methods for heart-centered personal discovery. Details: Come and learn about the Labyrinth. Labyrinths have been in use for at least 4,000 years. Labyrinths are currently being used world-wide as a way to quiet the mind, recover a balance in life, and encourage meditation, insight, self-reflection, stress reduction, and to discover innovation and celebration. They are open to all people as a non-denominational, cross-cultural blueprint for well-being. The Labyrinth is a single winding path that leads you to a centre and back out again. At its simplest, the Labyrinth is a metaphor for the journey to your own centre. This ancient path winds throughout and becomes a mirror for where we are in our lives. It touches our sorrows and releases our joys. The practice of labyrinth walking integrates the body with the mind and the mind with the spirit. Walk the labyrinth and illustrate your experience through an art mandala. The mandala is present in many different cultures around the world and is used to express our experiences and understanding. Line is energy, colour is feeling. The use of shape, color, movement, and intensity can reflect the deepest parts of our soul. Art in this fashion can be clarifying, healing, empowering, inspirational, relaxing, and help to awaken self-understanding. It is the language of the soul. Experience the benefits of slowing down, reconnecting with the wisdom of the body, being present, and reconnecting with your innermost heart-sense and intuition.

No art experience necessary. Bring your journal, wear comfortable clothes, and dress for being outside.
