Labyrinths have fascinated people for thousands of years, appearing in mythology, religion, art, and architecture across many cultures. This episode explores what labyrinths are, how they differ from mazes, their connection to the legend of the Minotaur, and the many ways they have been used throughout history. Along the way, you’ll hear about ancient designs, medieval cathedral labyrinths, symbolic journeys, and modern walking labyrinths. It’s steady and consistent, with no whispering and no sudden changes, just enough to give your mind something to follow as you wind down. Happy sleeping!
