Do you need to just stop and breathe? Maybe let your mind wander to break that writer’s block or contemplate nature for a bit? Then get yourself over to Audubon Park on East Park Drive, on the downtown side/East/Exposition Blvd and between Laurel and Magazine, and walk the Labyrinth. Don’t mind the address on this listing; it belongs to the friends group. The Labyrinth is a meditative walking path with one way in and one way out. It’s based on a medieval version at Chartres Cathedral in France. Since this movement began at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco, it’s become pretty popular and you can find other Labyrinth walks( ). It’s also pretty fun to watch kids just hop/skip/jump all over the patterns and invent their own games. Highly recommended as a place to stop and catch your breath.

Need a nice meditative walk? Go to The Labyrinth at Audubon Park — take Calhoun to Laurel — you’ll end up on East St — park on the side & walk over — you’ll be hearing the seals & other animals from the Zoo right next door! There are benches all around the walk, so don’t be surprised to have visitors sitting and relaxing– & after you walk — sit a spell & enjoy the state of calm. The Labyrinth was created after Katrina as a ray of hope in the turmoil that the city was going through!!! Ever grateful for the folks that dedicated the time effort & $$ to create that beautiful space!!!
