Breath prayer is a spiritual practice that historically the church has used as a way of aligning our patterns of breathing with simple words or phrases. It has been used as a way to grow in the biblical encouragement of ‘praying without ceasing.’

For some of us, slowing down and reflecting on a couple phrases is life-giving, and for others, we acknowledge this can be challenging. But together as a community, we occasionally give this a try as we continue to strengthen our spiritual muscles so to speak.

If you would like to make breath prayer a part of your personal spiritual practice, feel free to download one of the audio resources below*, or visit the YouTube link for a video version of the same experience.
