'In the fast-paced world in which we now live, we need simple, beautiful places like labyrinths that draw us in by the attraction of their pattern to slow ourselves down, still the busy mind and connect us again with our deep inner resources.' This full-colour book offers a unique insight into labyrinths in the UK and wider, combined with Di's own stunning photography. It begins with a potted history of the labyrinth and hints for walking one, shares personal reflections and stories from the labyrinth and explores the variety of settings in which labyrinths are now to be found. It includes a section on how to create your own labyrinth and lead your own labyrinth walk. Di Williams is an Anglican priest, adult educator, spiritual accompanier, professional bodywork practitioner, writer and the first Labyrinth Master Teacher in the UK. One of the gifts she brings to her work is a deep appreciation of physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual connection. She was awarded the MBE in 2008 for Services to Higher Education for her leading work in developing personal and spiritual support for those of all faiths and none. She is the creator of the beautiful Edinburgh Labyrinth.

Around the world a growing number of people are working with the labyrinth, an ancient artefact which is fulfilling a renewed role in today's world. This book offers ideas and examples of labyrinths in use in various situations: arts, community and social settings; schools, colleges and universities; a hospice, and a secure hospital; counselling, psychotherapy and well-being; churches, retreats and interfaith contexts. Ruth Sewell, Jan Sellers and Di Williams, the editors, first met in Chartres, France in 2008 on a Veriditas Facilitator Training programme. All three left Chartres with a passion to develop labyrinth work in the UK. They became aware of the need for a book that would focus on the practical experience of those already working with labyrinths in various contexts. They understand the sharing of such experience is invaluable for trainee and certified facilitators and for those involved in new labyrinth projects, as well as being of interest to labyrinth enthusiasts everywhere. They say: We hope you will find Working with the Labyrinth a book to browse and return to, a source of ideas and inspiration.- We'd like to encourage readers to explore settings and contexts very different from their own, where labyrinth initiatives may offer surprising connections and possibilities. We are delighted to have gathered contributions from such diverse enthusiasts, and hope that this book will serve as a helpful resource for anyone who - new to labyrinths, or expert - is looking for fresh ideas and ways forward in introducing, creating and working with labyrinths.
