We’re live on 2026 World Labyrinth Day calendar! Click on the link (then "view the global map") to see locations all around the globe walking as one at one.
Perhaps next year we’ll have a number of permanent labyrinths and pop ups to walk all year round and in WLD27!
In the places where they are desperately needed like our coast, housing estates, schools, prisons, parks and pavements.
We intend to be busy!
Labyrinth walking can bring a sense of peace and calm to the walker and to those around them.
In the craziness of this modern world full of upheavals and chaos we need occupations embodying calm self-control.
It may not be the solution you expect for the violence on our streets or the heartache in our hospitals nevertheless it’s our responsibility to expand the boundaries of compassion and love.
If you are even a tiny bit curious about finding out about how this practice can positively impact your life or your community please come down or drop us a dm.

Isn’t this beautiful! ❤️
Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have something similar to this in Ards and North Down? Ards and North Down Borough Council
Walking for peace, for healing and hope. As health care professionals we are passionate about: 💚
Inclusive green space with purpose because it can positively impact public health.

Toddler groups, Councillors, public servants, business owners, students, retirees, tourists, teenagers, the weary, the sick, the ashamed. All facing different challenges and carrying heavy burdens.
The labyrinth acts as a container to, just for a short while let go of heavy things and simply be.
With so much upheaval, pain and unrest globally and locally it’s time to try a different approach.

Loving gratitude to my sister Marg, brother John, Roxanne, Cara, Finn, Ryland, Julie and Kerry for their help in the spring clean up of our sanctuary - more to be done before we open but a great start - we so appreciate it!

Hospital appointments or visiting loved ones can be stressful and tiring. If you’re attending the RVH take the first set of lifts to the 7th floor and walk this incredible labyrinth. It’s really uplifting and energising. The playful walk gets you out of your head which can help you get ready for appointments or visits.
Alternatively, after a visit you might want to take a walk on the labyrinth to help calm your mind before returning to the rest of your day.
Perhaps you’re a worker in the RVH? A little walk on the labyrinth could be a good way to take a moment of calm in your day.

🌀Do you ever have one of those days when things maybe don’t quite go as expected and yet you find yourself in the place that feels “just right”?
Yesterday was one of those days for me. I had some space open up in my schedule, so I decided to draw a labyrinth in the sand. Just as I was finishing up, I was pulled away by the cuteness overload of two little friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniels 🐶. The conversation with the owners led to an explanation of the labyrinth and an invitation to walk around it. It felt like such an honour to engage in a sweet conversation as two of us meandered around the sacred path. And my heart was warmed by the gratitude and comment from the lady that she was “meant to be there” for that experience.
I then sent a message to a friend who lives close by to let him know the labyrinth was there, and the timing worked out perfectly for him to also avail of the circles in the sand before they were washed away by the incoming tide. He, too, offered gratitude for the opportunity to take some time out and turn in towards his own heart.
🌀May you find peace on your path today, even if leads you in an unplanned direction. May you be open to whatever unfolds, and make space for compassion and curiosity towards the tender spots inside. 🙏❤️
