Labyrinth of Wonders: Discovering Magic with Each Step

Labyrinth of Wonders

Discovering magic with each step

Quiet the Mind

An ancient symbol of wholeness, the labyrinth has long served as a meaningful tool for prayer and meditation. Combining the imagery of the circle and the spiral, it offers a meandering yet purposeful path that symbolizes a journey to our inner center and back out into the world. It reflects a model of that path, reminding us that we are right where we need to be.

Join yoga teachers Kiesha Battles, Marcia Ramoutar, and Polly Weiss for a gathering filled with wisdom and wonder. Together, we will explore how walking this ancient path can quiet the mind and open the spirit through restorative yoga, creative expression, storytelling, outdoor practices, and humor. Over the course of the retreat, you will have the opportunity to build and walk various labyrinths.

Thoughtfully designed for anyone ready to step forward, this experience invites you to return time and again. Without any rigid rules, you can move mindfully at your own natural pace. We welcome you to experience the Kripalu Labyrinth!

In this program, you will experience:

Restorative yoga
Creative expression
Storytelling
Time in nature

NOTE: Please prepare for both indoor and outdoor activities.

FAQs

Most are live on Zoom with opportunities to interact with teachers. Many also include recordings you can watch later for a set time (often 30 days), but not all—always check the program page.

If the program is recorded, you will have access to the video recording(s) for 30 days after the program ends. Recordings will be available within 72 hours of the end of each session.

A stable internet connection, Zoom access, and space to practice. For yoga/embodied programs, having a mat, props, or a chair is helpful, but not required.
