What is a labyrinth used for?

A labyrinth is typically used as a symbolic or spiritual tool for meditation and introspection. Unlike a maze, which is designed to confuse, a labyrinth has a single, winding path that leads to the center and back out, promoting reflection and a sense of journey. It can also serve as a place for rituals, healing, or personal growth, helping individuals to find clarity and calm. In some traditions, labyrinths are used in religious practices to facilitate prayer and contemplation.
