Labyrinth

The Earth is You. You are the Earth.
When you realize there is no separation, you fall completely in love with this beautiful planet!

We often forget that the planet we are living on has given us all the elements that make up our bodies. The water in our flesh, our bones and all the microscopic cells inside our bodies all come from the earth and are part of the earth. The earth is not just the environment we live in. We are the earth and we are always carrying her within us.

As we mindfully walk on the labyrinth we can send our love to our Mother Earth with every step. How do we do this? There are many ways. When we practice beautifully walking the path, we massage the earth with our feet and plant seeds of joy with each step. We can visualize flowers blooming under each step the moment our foot touches the ground leaving behind beautiful fields of flowers everywhere we walk. Imagine kissing the earth with your feet. The possibilities are endless!!

To further enhance the experience, you will be walking among the the mysterious sounds and vibrations of Gongs, Singing Bowls and other mystical instruments. This is a great visceral reminder that everything in the universe is vibrating and the vibrations we send out affect the whole.

Sending this blessing in community reminds us of our powerful connection to each other and to the earth. Even though the labyrinth at St. Paul’s is indoors, we can still feel the connection to the earth beneath the floor. I hope you will join us on this special day!

Come to the Parish Hall between 5:30 and 7:00 pm. Being fashionably late will help create a more spacious walk. It takes about 30 minutes to complete the walk. Chairs will be available for you to sit and enjoy.

Blessings,
Jamie

Save the date & the Big Kahuna

Please save Tuesday, April 22, 2025, for the Earth Day Labyrinth and Gong Song!!!
It will be at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church from 5:30 – 7:30pm. More details soon.

THE BIG NEWS 🥁 is I will be bringing my 40” gong I affectionately call the ”Big Kahuna”! I recently purchased a portable stand for it, so now the Big Kahuna can join in the soundscape! (I will still be bringing the other 4 gongs you have seen/heard/felt before.)

Thich Nhat Hahn said, “When we practice walking meditation beautifully, we massage the earth with our feet and plant seeds of joy and happiness with each step.” I hope to see you on the Path of the Labyrinth!

Blessings,
Jamie

Thank You 🙏🏼

I appreciate everyone who came to St. Paul’s tonight to walk the Labyrinth and enjoy the sounds and vibrations of the Gongs and Singing Bowls.

I look forward to gathering again soon!

Blessings and Namaste

Labyrinth & Gong Song February

St. Paul’s Episcopal Church Parish Hall
224 N East Ave., Fayetteville, AR
Tuesday, February 11, 2025
5:30 – 7:30 pm

We invite you to join us for the February Labyrinth Walk and Gong Song.  February is Black History Month and Valentines Day.  This is the perfect opportunity to contemplate love and compassion for ourselves and those who are different from us.

The Labyrinth is a powerful spiritual tool whose path leads us to our own center—back to our soul—that deep, quiet, knowing sense within.  Unlike a maze where there are confusing intersections and dead ends, the Labyrinth is an ancient tool that allows participants to relax and simply follow the well defined path in to the center and back out again.   When walked in community, it is a reminder that though we may be in different places in our lives (along the path), we walk a shared path. 

To further enhance the experience, you will be walking among the mysterious sounds and vibrations of Gongs, Singing Bowls and other musical metals.  In this safe,  contemplative and relaxed state it is possible to connect to the Spirit of Love that enlivens us all!

Come to the Parish Hall between 5:30 and 7:00 pm.  Being fashionably late will help create a more spacious walk.  It takes about 30 minutes to complete the walk, and chairs will be available for you to sit and enjoy.

Blessings,

Mary Miller and Jamie White

Warm Body, Mind and Spirit

Oh the weather outside is frightful, but the Parish Hall is warm and delightful!!!

Please join us walking the Labyrinth in community while contemplating the inspiring messages of Dr. Martin Luther King. As you walk, the soothing sounds and vibrations of the Gongs and Singing Bowls will wash over you. Come any time between 6 – 8 pm for this heart warming gathering.

”Love is the greatest force in the universe. It is the heartbeat of the moral cosmos. He who loves is a participant in the being of God.” Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

5:30 – 6:30 pm, 

St. Paul’s Episcopal Church

You are invited to walk the Stations of the Cross while Jamie White plays her ensemble of gongs, singing bowls and bells. Their otherworldly sounds and vibrations will enhance your experience of walking this sacred path. 

You are also welcome to sit in the pews and enjoy the meditative state that the Gong Song helps to facilitate.  It will be a wonderful opportunity to deeply relax and tune in to your “still small voice”.

Feel free to drop in anytime between 5:30 and 6:30.

Evening Prayer will take place before the Gong Song, at 5:00 pm, in the Chapel.

COMING SOON!

Last year was a busy one for me, after returning from India I moved from my house in town to one Joe built for us in the country. As a result, I didn’t have the time or mental space to offer Gong Song Meditations.

Now, 2020, I’m once again back from India and ready to share the wonder and joy of Singing Bowls and Gongs!!! I gathered all of the 31 Singing Bowls I’ve collected over the years and made groups that “play well together”. I’m soooooo excited!

My first offering is in the works for mid March—be on the lookout for details coming soon!

Blessings and Namasté,

Moving to the Other Side: Kundalini yoga, Chanting and Gong Song’

I am sooooo excited to be collaborating with Jimmye Whitfield again! Come join us for a life changing experience with Kundalini Yoga, chanting and a Gong Song.

Would you like to break away from patterns from the past that no longer serve you? It’s easy to move to a higher frequency using breath, movement and sound!

Jimmye, in her loving and skillfull way, will lead a Kriya set, as taught by Yogi Bhajan. This set is designed to be a total tune-up, an inner awakening, as you move your body and breath together.

The chant will be the Kirtan Kryia, and is the one Yogi Bhajan said would carry us through the Aquarian Age! “Saa Taa Naa Maa” is powerful!

The session will wind down as Jamie creates a cocoon of sacred sound currents with her ensemble of Gongs, Singing Bowls and Bells. As you settle onto your mat and drop into deep relaxation, you will experience the grace of Higher Intelligence, integrating the shifts that occurred during this afternoon of oneness!

When: Saturday, December 1, 2:00 – 4:30 pm

Where: Be One Yoga Studio, 1041 N Garland Avenue, Fayetteville, AR

Cost: $30

Reserve Your Spot: beoneyogafayetteville.com

Be sure to bring a water bottle, mat, pillow and blanket.

Namasté,

Jamie
