Dustin W. Davis (Interdisciplinary Health Sciences) recently published a manuscript, "A Literature Review on the Physiological and Psychological Effects of Labyrinth Walking" in the International Journal of Yogic, Human Movement and Sports Sciences. Labrynth walking entails walking a path that curves to create a circular, square, or rectangular pattern which has a single entrance and exit and does not branch. There are typically four phases: releasing (begins upon entering the labyrinth and continues during the walk toward the center), receiving (arriving and spending time in the center), returning (exiting the center and walking toward the exit), and journaling (reflecting on the experience and writing one’s thoughts and feelings). The article describes the psychological benefits of engaging in labrynth walking, and details the need for well-controlled investigations to determine potential physiological effects. Davis is a doctoral student.
