It's rough out there. We live in a complicated and chaotic world. Many of us have felt helpless ~ wondering how we can make a positive difference. We need safe places to leave politics, identities, and issues aside. Places where we can rest, rejuvenate, and return to our lives, replenished and centered.
Be part of a project to create a destination for peace and healing. A place that is open and free to all.
A new, 65-foot, outdoor LEGACY LABYRINTH modeled after the world's most famous: Chartres Cathedral in France.
Did you know? 1,5000,000 people travel to Chartres each year. (It's also a UNESCO World Heritage Site!)
Not only that... labyrinths have been around for over 4,000 years, from various cultures going all the way back to petroglyphs found in Spain, dated 2000 BCE. Designs of labyrinths are found on coins from ancient Crete, as the "Man in the Moon" labyrinth in the Hopi culture, and among continents that otherwise had (literally) no connection to one another. Labyrinths were prolific across the Roman Empire and spread.
A labyrinth is not a maze. It has one path in and one path out, and you cannot get lost. It is a walking meditation that brings balance to the hemispheres of the brain, integrates, reduces stress, and lowers blood pressure. Walking a labyrinth has physical, emotional, and spiritual benefits.
Here are images of a few labyrinths below:

Imagine.... this labyrinth will be located on private land ~ and available to ALL ~ in the Southern Adirondack Mountains within a 4-hour drive of New York City, Boston, Montreal, Albany, Rochester, and New Jersey. That's over 30 million people. Imagine the number of people this labyrinth will serve.
The ADIRONDACK LABYRINTH (the official name) will be a place where anyone can come and walk the path in reflection, contemplation, and quiet.
Here, seekers will have that safe haven to come to.
The Adirondack Labyrinth will be one of our greatest tools to bring balance, peace, and healing to our community, region, and beyond.
Here is an image of pilgrims walking the labyrinth in Chartres Cathedral. This labyrinth has been walked upon since the 1200s. Like France, seekers will make a point to come to walk the Adirondack Labyrinth ~ both guided and on their own ~ and in time they will come from further and further away, rippling outward the impact of peace and healing beyond these mountains. |  |
 | The architects and hosts of this labyrinth are Christine & Larry Powers who applied to become the 7th Legacy Labyrinth. Knowing that there was a divine hand in this decision, they said YES first, having faith that the full funding to build it will come. They kicked it off with $7,000 of their own money. They are donating their time and expertise to build the ADIRONDACK LABYRINTH ~ Larry is a contractor and builder, and Christine is a professional marketer. To be transparent, the Adirondack Labyrinth needs a village to fund the labyrinth in its entirety. The time is NOW. Volunteers are coming from all over the United States in July 2022 to build the bulk of the labyrinth. Hand-made with 2,000 stones and boulders, poured concrete, crushed blue stone, and grass, and built by the hearts and hands of volunteers, tractors, and excavators, this labyrinth will be unparalleled in setting, design, and construction. It will host seekers, school field trips, pilgrims, and vacationers; and will be the site of workshops for peace, growth, grieving, and celebrations. Here, we will be able to return to nature to become whole once again.
