- You can pray a breath prayer into the spaces of your day: when you are waiting, when you are worried and anxious, when you need some sense of God's presence, 'underneath' all other words and thoughts consuming your daily interactions, when you are entering into silence and solitude, and as a way of bringing your mind back to your desire when it begins to wander.
- Discovering your Own Breath Prayer
- Sit quietly, reminding yourself you are in God's loving presence. Allow yourself to sit with a particular word or phrase from Scripture if there is one which helps you enter a prayerful, listening stance.
- Express your true heart to God: "God, what I most want from you right now is...
- Choose your favorite name or image for God which best captures who God is for you or who you need or want Him to be as you are currently relating to him. (examples: God, Father, Jesus, Creator, Spirit, Breath of life, Lord, Shepherd, Holy One, Prince of Peace, Savior)
- Combine your name for God with the expression of your heart, capturing your yearning for intimacy, wholeness, or well-being in Christ.
- Consider variations of your combination until you have a prayer of about 6 to 8 syllables which flows smoothly when spoken aloud; rhythmic enough to be prayed with the inhalation and exhalation of your breathing.
- Portions of the Breath Prayer exercise are adapted from The Breath of Life: A Simple Way to Pray by Ron DelBene; published by Wipf and Stock; 2005; 110 pages
