The Labyrinth. A Path to your deepest wisdom.
Welcome!We are so glad you've found us! If you are new to the labyrinth, you might want to learn more about it here, or watch our short video series presented by our Founder, the Reverend Dr. Lauren Artress. As she defines it, "The Labyrinth is a spiritual tool that has many applications in various settings. It reduces stress, quiets the mind and opens the heart. It is a walking meditation, a path of prayer, and a blue-print where psyche meets Spirit." Here is a resource to Locate a labyrinth near you. Feel free to contact us if you have questions along the way. | May 3, 2025: World Labyrinth DayEvery year on the first Saturday in May thousands of people around the globe participate in World Labyrinth Day as a moving meditation for world peace and celebration of the labyrinth experience.

A Community for All
Like the labyrinth itself, Veriditas welcomes all. We embrace inclusivity and particularly, in this moment of reflection and reckoning, racial equality. We stand with all who are marginalized by systemic inequities in the United States and globally. The Veriditas community supports all who wish to explore the labyrinth as a way to tap their own deepest wisdom.
As the world leader in training labyrinth facilitators, we are dedicated to transformational growth, not only for individuals, communities and globally…but for our own organization. We recognize the important work we have to do to further integrate diversity, equity and inclusion into the fabric of Veriditas. The labyrinth, used worldwide for healing, conflict resolution, understanding, ceremony and community building, is our most powerful tool. A path on which, through compassion, understanding and respect for the richness of our differences, we can walk forward together.
