I've never used them are I am willing to learn.  As far as physically entering one, I tend to avoid them.....I always get lost.

Mazes are designed to get you lost, to trick you. Labyrinths are designed to help you find yourself. You cannot get lost - the path is cursive, one way in and one way out. Just look slightly ahead, put one foot in front of the other and keep walking. The way in - release, a letting go of that which is burdening you. The time spent in the centre - receive, a listening to that inner voice of wisdom. The way out - return, bringing back out to the everyday that which you have learnt/discerned, that refreshment of energy, that renewal of spirit, that calm and stillness from the time spent in the centre - the safe, sacred space.

Linda M, I encourage you to find a local labyrinth and walk it then post up how it was for you. Alternatively there are finger labyrinths which you can use, tracing the path with your non-dominant hand in a slow, calm movement.
