A labyrinth is not a maze (although it may be amazing!)

A labyrinth is not a maze with mental challenges and blind alleys. You can get lost in a maze!

In a labyrinth, there is only one path from the entrance to the center and back again. There is no “right” way to walk the labyrinth; there are no “right” thoughts to have. Let your experience be your own.

The path of the labyrinth is like the path of life – with twists and turns. Allow yourself time for the journey, to encounter others on your path. There might be a thrill of pleasure as you approach the center and sometimes a flash of insight before you leave.

Some enter the labyrinth with a problem to solve or an intention to change something in their lives. One person said “In this space I release my fears and remember who I truly am.”
