Labyrinth: Come and Deepen Your Meditation Practice at Bonnevaux

Laurence Freeman will explore the great spiritual symbol of the labyrinth in its tangible and interior forms.

Date

10 - 15 May, 2022

There will be daily teachings by Fr Laurence and times for yoga with Giovanni Felicioni, sharing and exploring the late Spring beauty of Bonnevaux. In his talk Laurence will explore the great spiritual symbol of the labyrinth in its tangible and interior forms. Participants will be invited to begin the construction of a Bonnevaux labyrinth during the week. This will also be a gracefilled time to meet some of our Norwegian meditators.

This event takes place at Bonnevaux and offers an opportunity to discover the rich cultural and historical French and European heritage of the 12th-century Abbaye de Bonnevaux, as well as to explore the varied and natural beauty of the land which we cultivate as a model of ecological responsibility.
