Join us for a Labyrinth Meditation + Picnic at McClelland Sculpture Park

Are you craving PEACE, STILLNESS & CLARITY?

Join Bridgette Parent, founder of Soul-Hive, for a transformative 3-hour guided journey at McClelland Sculpture Park. Together we’ll explore one of the oldest meditative tools ever known—the labyrinth.

Acknowledgement of Country
In the spirit of healing and deep listening, we acknowledge the Bunurong / Boon Wurrung people of the South-Eastern Kulin Nation as the Traditional Custodians of the beautiful bushland, lands, and waters on which we gather. We pay our heartfelt respects to their ancestors and Elders past, present, and emerging, and extend that respect to all First Nations peoples joining us. We honor their deep, continuous spiritual connection to this sacred Country and thank them for their enduring custodianship of this land.

The Experience


We will be walking “The Winding Path—The Search for Truth,” a stunning labyrinth created in 2010 by acclaimed Australian artist Andrew Rogers. Best known for his massive global “Rhythms of Life” project—comprising 51 monumental geoglyphs across 7 continents that are visible from space—Rogers designed this particular piece to invite deep contemplation. This is the first event of its kind to be held at this very special location. 


November is a truly gorgeous time of year at McClelland, and we are already imagining and hoping for a glorious, sunny spring day surrounded by the park’s beautiful natural bushland and native flora. To maximize the peaceful morning energy, the park is opening its gates an hour early just for us at 9:00 AM. While the general public and the on-site cafe don’t open until 10:00 AM, we will have the grounds to ourselves. 

We will all meet near the entrance and begin our journey with a gentle, 10-minute grounding walk together through the bushland to the labyrinth, which is tucked away beautifully in the back of the park, completely secluded from the crowds. (I will provide exact meeting details upon sign up!) 


Unlike a maze, a labyrinth has no dead ends; it is a single path in and a single path out. It is a path that leads directly to stillness, opening the doors to insight, clarity, and peace. Combining meditation, oracle cards, journaling, and heartfelt group discussion, this experience requires no prior experience. Simply come with an open mind and a willingness to slow down.

As you walk, you’ll be invited to let go of the noise of daily life, tune into your inner wisdom, and receive a message and crystal at the labyrinth’s centre. Afterward, we’ll gather for a relaxed picnic lunch to debrief, share reflections, and enjoy each other’s company in this stunning artistic sanctuary.
