For today's #MentalHealthMonday, we're spotlighting a memorial and reflective space well known by BC students: the Labyrinth. Officially called the Memorial Labyrinth, this space was dedicated on September 11, 2003 to honor the lives of 22 Boston College alumni lost in the 9/11 tragedy. Rebecca Valette presents "5 paths through the Labyrinth", with descriptions of ways to take advantage of the peacefulness this space provides. Click on the link in bio for her meditative guide to walking the Labyrinth. We urge you to step outside (with masks on!) and venture down Linden Lane, behind Bapst Library, to experience the serenity yourself.
