Centering Prayer

Choose a word that can serve as your "prayer anchor." Then, sit with your back straight, feet grounded on the floor, and palms turned down or open on your lap. Take a few deep cleansing breathes. Next, try to let go of any thoughts, allowing your thinking mind to stop all its hard work and rest. When thoughts return recall your word to help refocus your intention of staying in the present moment. Imagine your thoughts being leaves floating down a serene river. Let yourself sink into your body, accepting any physical aches, pains, or discomforts. Give yourself the gift of simply being. Over time, you will find that this practice helps your mind, body, and heart heal and open.
