I'm a devotee of Centering Prayer. I liked this version. Short instruction off the top then a helpful breathing exercise, the 20 min silence, then a beautiful rendition of a traditional prayer to close. I'll use this track a lot.

Perfect pre-prayer or bible time grounding technique

His voice is clear. The lead into the prayer is not what I had done before. From 2 inches below navel, can’t remember 2nd instruction and 2inches behind eyes. I went back to that . I feel comfortable and grateful for the prayer experience. Thank you.

Love the simplicity of this meditation. Love the wording of the prayer at the end.
