Centering Prayer

Centering Prayer is a method of meditation that has in use by Christians with a strong emphasis on interior silence. The modern Centering Prayer movement in Christianity can be traced to several books published by three Trappist monks of St. Joseph's Abbey in Spencer, Massachusetts in the 1970s: Fr. William Meninger, Fr. M. Basil Pennington and Abbot Thomas Keating. Fr. Keating through his teachings, workshops, and retreats has made Centering Prayer available and accessible to all people regardless of their religious affiliation and affinity. This is a great practice of prayer for anyone interested in changing their focus in life.

This prayer practice centers you and helps you get into a deeper relationship with God. It is a very useful method of prayer that can be used by anyone regardless of their spiritual status. If you believe in God, you can easily enter into this prayer practice. Because in the end, this is not about a particular religion, but rather a God-centered living.
