Celebrating World Labyrinth Day 2025: Sending a Love Train Around the World

World Labyrinth Day on 3 May encourages people around the world to walk a labyrinth, willing peace and harmony, and activating a wave of goodwill from the earliest walks in New Zealand and in the east through to the places where the sun will last set on this day in the west. With hundreds of events already planned, this offers a rare and important opportunity to meditate and send collective intention with thousands of others, en masse. In this episode, special guests Carmel Stabley and Susie Leiper tell us about the significance of labyrinths in meditation and healing, and how we can each play a part in willing positive intention as we are encouraged to "walk as one at one" (at 1pm in our time zone),  which may include using a finger labyrinth downloadable from the World Labyrinth Day website, or joining an online, virtual walk.

Ellen turns interviewee in this episode, as she talks about her role as Co-ordinator of World Labyrinth Day and her reflections of what has been learned and achieved over the 5 years that she has carried this mantle.

Suggested Intention for World Labyrinth Day
