Centering Prayer is a receptive method of Christian silent prayer that prepares us to receive the gift of contemplative prayer, prayer in which we experience God’s presence within us, closer than breathing, closer than thinking, closer than consciousness itself. It can be helpful to one’s practice of centering prayer, especially at the beginning, to have periodic accountability and support through a group.
