Exploring contemplative practices has become an important part of my spiritual journey. They are tools for connection with the Divine, ways to take intellectual knowledge and apply them in embodied ways. This page is designed to be a landing page for a library of resources to help introduce you to these practices.

I am just a fellow traveler on this journey, not an expert by any means. I am still dabbling with, trying on, and learning about these things as well, but I have compiled my own experience as well as books and resources from more wizened practitioners as a jumping off place for you to do your own exploring. Each of the listed practices below will have a live link to its own page as I have time to develop them. Blessings.

• Centering Prayer
• The Welcoming Prayer
• Chanting
• Lectio Divina (sacred reading of sacred texts)
• Yoga
