Thursday
Breath Prayer
Do you hold onto shame and guilt when it comes to spending time with God? Do you find it daunting to “do it” right? Is your inner critic harsh when it comes to comparison?
Today, as you engage in this breath prayer, allow yourself to be present with your feelings and also give yourself grace. Allow your body and mind to settle and simply “be”.
