During a labyrinth walk, the left and right hemispheres of the brain are balanced, leading to a perfect state for accessing intuition and creativity. Walking into a labyrinth is a going inward that stimulates and activates the right side of the brain. This is generally thought of as the more feminine, intuitive side of our being. The walk out is a carrying forward into life of the jewels of intuitive knowing that come from the feminine, with an intention to act on what we have discovered. This engages the masculine aspect of our essential nature. The walk is facilitated by a perfect combination of breath and movement. Walking the labyrinth also gives access to the universal energy field the artistic pattern expressed through the labyrinth's sacred geometry.
Everything is related to everything and the geometry of a spiral such as the labyrinth makes this both visually and kinesthetically clear. As you walk a labyrinth, the spiral pattern is soothing because it is familiar to our consciousness all the way down to a cellular level.
