Rasheeda Hastings

Rasheeda Hastings is a Certified Spiritual Director who resides in Philadelphia, where she works with Cranaleith Spiritual Center as Community Engagement Liaison. 

Rasheeda was intrigued with the labyrinth at an early age.  As an adult, when navigating through challenging times in life, she returned to the labyrinth as a calming meditation in motion. The labyrinth has since become much more in Rasheeda’s life. She enjoys the labyrinth as a way to enhance balance. A way to connect to her inner self which connects to the Divine.

She became affiliated with Veriditas, a non-profit organization that provides training and support of labyrinth facilitators worldwide.  This was when her labyrinth experience began to deepen even more.  She is now a Certified Labyrinth Facilitator and member of Veriditas Association of Facilitators, as well as other labyrinth networks.

A labyrinth enthusiast, she offers walks at retreats and in community which include solstice celebrations, walks for peace, and personal walks.  Rasheeda also offers the labyrinth as a tool in spiritual direction as a way of grounding and touching in to one’s core.  Whether an invocative process, clearing of the mind, or just walking to release, the labyrinth never fails and is always available to teach, guide, nurture, whatever is uniquely needed at the time of encounter.

It is Rasheeda’s desire to take her ministry of Spiritual Direction and the Labyrinth experience into the world, expanding accessibility and inclusion to all.
