The Open Heart Daily Prayer Packet contains experiential prayer rhythms for deep heart transformation. It has its roots in the ancient prayer of Examen, while incorporating sensory experiences that access body, brain and heart. The cards are an invitation to open your heart to allow the Holy Spirit to enlighten, lead you into gratefulness, and examine your heart. In the final movement, you are invited to become aware of the near Presence of God in your life. This prayer approach can be used personally, with a friend, or with a group.

This is a wonderful way to enter into a transformative prayer experience that can bring a powerful connection to the heart and presence of God.
