Labyrinths are quite a cool way of taking time out, giving you time to reflect, prayer, meditate as you move around the space. Manchester monastery has recently had a huge refurbishment and ongoing plans include a labyrinth installed into the floor of the main space. In the meantime they regularly have a temporary labyrinth in the space, which a couple of us walked around today.

It's great to see that such an amazing building is being used as a centre for the community and exploration of a range of spiritual ideas and expressions - and you can even rent the space for parties!
