This walking meditation is an archetype, a mystical ritual found in all religious traditions. It quiets the mind and opens the soul.Walking a Sacred Pathexplores the historical origins of this divine imprint and shares the discoveries of modern day seekers. It shows us the potential of the Labyrinth to inspire change and renewal, and serves as a guide to help us develop the higher level of human awareness we need to survive in the twenty-first century. The Labyrinth inspires in the people who have come to walk along its sinuous, painted path a palpable mix of solemnity and joy. —The New York Times

The Labyrinth turns the simple act of walking into a sacred experience. —Gnosis

Part of the fun of readingWalking a Sacred Pathis to feel 'the great dignity of the symbol,' regardless of one's own religious background. —San Francisco Chronicle Book Review

Lauren Artress is one of the pioneers of the renaissance of Western spirituality. —China Galland, author ofWomen in the WildernessTheReverend Dr. Laura Artressis Canon for Special Ministeries at San Francisco's Grace Cathedral.
