What is a labyrinth? And why have I heard them mentioned as a method of relaxation?

Labyrinths are ancient walking courses that are making a comeback as modern-day tools to calm the mind, relax the body and reduce stress. They're cropping up in parks and parking lots, in public spaces and on private properties. To discover their enduring appeal, all you have to do is walk within the lines.

Most people think of a labyrinth as a maze from which there is seemingly no escape. But the type of labyrinth we're talking about is two-dimensional (no walls to obstruct vision) and unicursal, which means it has a single winding path that leads to a central point. Follow the route and you get to the center: no directions, no decisions and no getting lost. Turn around and walk the same winding path out again. A maze (a multicursal labyrinth with choices that may lead to dead ends), on the other hand, is a challenge that can require stamina. A labyrinth simply requires you to persist in your journey.

The classic and simple seven-circuit labyrinth has been in existence for more than 4,000 years. It's been part of cultures as diverse as American Hopi Indian, Scandinavian and Indian. Examples have been found in ancient cave paintings, and carved into the turf of a grassy knoll in England -- and they're easy to replicate. A second, more complex type, developed during the Middle Ages, is found mostly in churches, the most famous of which is the inlaid floor design in Chartres Cathedral in France. These are currently being reconstructed on canvasses that are circulating from community to community for retreats and celebrations.

One advantage of labyrinth walking may be that the rhythmic action of walking itself can reduce the nervous energy that prevents some people from reaping the benefits of other relaxation techniques. The effortless concentration and movement of following the winding path deepens breathing and helps bring about a release of tension. People say that walking the labyrinth helps them solve problems or find inspiration. Others use it as a simple focusing tool at the beginning of the day or before starting a new project.
