Small Handheld Finger Labyrinth for Mindfulness, Meditation and Stress Relaxation, Classical Cretan Style, Handcrafted in USA by Wooden Contraptions (maple)

Finger labyrinths are a tool for mindfulness and relaxation. By moving a finger slowly along the path, the “walker” can calm and center oneself. The principle is very simple, making it easy to use.

The small size of this labyrinth makes it perfect for carrying with you, keeping on your desk, and if space is limited, storing it. Walnut is a beautiful wood with varied grain and makes an attractive and useful addition to your desk. The edges of the labyrinth are rounded and profiled, so it nestles in your hands. That makes it very satisfying yet comfortable to hold.

It is a great tool to have at home or an office desk, as walking the labyrinth is a right-brain activity enhancer and helps calm oneself and enhances problem-solving. A carved finger path makes it unnecessary to look, allowing one to focus on the walk. As opposed to a traditional maze, there are no wrong turns.
The labyrinth follows a pattern of a classical maze. The depictions of this pattern have been found in many cultures, including ancient Cretan coins. The path, no matter how twisted, leads to the center.
Our labyrinth has a well-defined center, making it natural for a thumb to rest at the end of the walk. Experiment with using the non-dominant hand to find the way!
