A Sense of Connectedness, Transcendent Experiences, and Insights for Compassionate Action Emerge through an International Collective Labyrinth Walk with a Shared Intention during the COVID-19 Pandemic

This research project collected information from 461 participants from 19 countries who collectively walked labyrinths together with a shared intention on World Labyrinth Day 2021. Three predominant themes emerged from their narrative accounts: A sense of intrapersonal and interpersonal connectedness, a transcendent experience, and Compassion for action from the intention “to receive insights that can influence change”.
