Exploring the Labyrinth: A Guide for Healing and Spiritual Growth
by Melissa Gayle West
"Walking the labyrinth fulfills six important contemporary needs,"
according to author and psychotherapist Melissa Gayle West: "deepening spirituality; inwardness and connection; access to intuition and creativity; simplicity; integration of body and spirit; and intimacy and community." These are tall orders, but West manages to demystify this powerful process, explaining how it differs from walking a maze and how readers can make their own labyrinths.
