Prayer ~ I Have No Idea Where I Am Going

“My Lord God,
I have no idea where I am going.
I do not see the road ahead of me.
I cannot know for certain where it will end.
Nor do I really know myself,
and the fact that I think that I am following your will
does not mean that I am actually doing so.
But I believe that the desire to please you
does in fact please you.
And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing.
I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire.
And I know that if I do this you will lead me by the right road
though I may know nothing about it.
Therefore will I trust you always
though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death.
I will not fear, for you are ever with me,
and you will never leave me to face my perils alone. ”

~ Thomas Merton

Slow and Steady is a 75 minute early morning practice of mindful moving, conscious breathing, and gratitude meditation that will strengthen the muscles of our bodies, minds, and spirits.  We will focus on holding the postures for a longer length of time and moving at a slower pace.  Keep in mind that “slow and steady” does not translate as “super easy!”  Moving at a slower pace and holding postures for a length of time longer than our natural inclination is a mental challenge that specifically strengthens our muscles of focus and concentration, as well as the physical muscles of our quadriceps and abdominals.  Additionally, the “Power” in “Power Yoga” does not mean “super difficult or impossible!”  Postures and pacing will be modified and props will be available, so you’ll have lots of options.
