Labyrinths have been used for centuries as a tool for meditation and renewal of spirit. Labyrinths have one way in and one way out, so there is no need to worry about getting lost. There is no right or wrong way of using the labyrinth. Depending on what questions you ask as you walk the labyrinth, different answers and experiences will unfold to you. If you do not have access to a labyrinth that you can walk; you can use your fingers to walk a smaller labyrinth.
