Inside Tracks next meditation is scheduled to take Wednesday, July 21st at 7:30 PM at Unity Northwest Church, 259 E. Central Road in Des Plaines.

This month's meditation will be a special summer edition, a Labyrinth meditation, and will be held outdoors.

For centuries, labyrinths have held great spiritual significance. Labyrinth patterns have been found on pottery and clay tablets dating back 4,000 years. Ancient Egyptians, Greeks, Spaniards, Native Americans, Vietnamese, and South Americans have used labyrinths for thousands of years to draw closer to the divine. During the Crusades, Christians walked the labyrinth to simulate the journey to Jerusalem, in Native American culture, the labyrinth is called the Medicine Wheel, and the Celts described it as the Never Ending Circle. In mystical Judaism, or Kabbalah, The Tree of Life has been likened to the labyrinth.

The labyrinth has been called a metaphor of life?s journey. All are welcome. Come and join us.
