Benefits of walking a labyrinth include:
Stress release, calming especially for hyper-actives
Problem solving in the right brain way
Connection with inner self (heart)
Reduced negativity and fear
How to walk a labyrinth:
(a maze has dead ends and tricky areas)
- Take three deep breaths before you step onto the pathway, remain quiet
- Focus your thoughts on the idea in your mind or one which comes to mind
- Remain conscious of your breath and make way to the centre
- Rest a while in the centre and listen to your heart
- Retrace your steps
- If another person is approaching, wait in an area to pass each other
How to find due south:
The Southern Cross Constellation (Crux) has four main stars and two very bright pointer stars to the left of the cross. To find the celestial South Pole, draw a line from the head star, Gacrux, through the lowest star, Acrux, and continue down till reaching a bright star, Achernar. Now draw a line from the pointer star closet to the cross, Hadar, and bring your hands steadily closer together till they meet. They are pointing at the celestial South Pole. Drop a line down to the horizon. That is due south from where you are.
