Some places are dramatic the moment you arrive. Others are much quieter and seem to reveal themselves slowly.

The Sanctuary at Avebury was like that for me.

It sits within an extraordinary landscape, close to Avebury, Silbury Hill and the West Kennet Avenue, but compared with the great stones at Avebury it can seem quite understated. Today, what you see are markers showing where circles of timber posts and stones once stood.

• Ever since my first Labyrinth journey, I have sought them out wherever I go! The designs, the feeling of inner peace, of deepening within, the nature all around, inspired me to design and build my own in woodland at the end of my garden

• Teaching with the wonderful Thames Valley Dowsers this summer, at the Global Retreat Centre in Oxfordshire, I shared this fascination. The labyrinth, more than a structure, became a shared story

It turned out that the original builder of the home was an angry person and their energy went into the bricks and mortar as the house was being built. This vibration was no longer able to harmonise with the more elevated vibrations of the occupants, so some house healing was required…
