Centering Prayer
"Centering Prayer is a method of consenting to God’s presence and action within. It is a prayer of silence, an opening of heart and mind to God."
— Fr. Thomas Keating
Key Elements:
Consent – The central movement is consenting to God’s presence and action.
Silence – It is not about words or thoughts but resting in God’s presence.
Sacred Word – A simple word (e.g., "peace," "Jesus," or "love") is used to gently return to the awareness of God when thoughts arise.
Practice – Usually done for 20 minutes, twice daily, in stillness and interior quiet.
