The therapeutic use of labyrinths
Labyrinths are ancient sacred spaces. A labyrinth is a single winding path which has been used by many cultures and religions throughout history as a decorative symbol on coins pottery and floors, as roads along which the dead were taken to burial sites, as a path walked to ensure good fishing catches, to protect from evil forces envisaged as wolves and trolls, in courtship rituals, to enable focusing and meditation and prayer.
