The Power of Presence

This is a presentation on simple prayer practices which help to bring peace and healing in our daily lives, by connecting us to God. You will learn how  focusing on breathing, practicing gratitude and using an anchor-word can be enriching, though easy to use.

Dr Iva Beranek will speak about the Power of Presence on Tuesday, 14th March 2017 at 2pm. Venue is the Contemplative Centre on the Student Square beside Teach Fáilte (Student Centre), UL, Limerick.

The presentation is done from a Christian perspective but it is sensitive and gentle, so that people from other traditions, or none, can also participate.

Everyone is welcome.

You will learn how gratitude, focusing on breathing and using an anchor-word can be enriching, though easy to use. We will also address one of the ways of dealing with our more challenging emotions, and how to bring some relief to them through a so-called Welcoming prayer.  

Join Carol Casey and Dr Iva Beranek as they speak about the Power of Presence on Wednesday, 8th March 2017 at 2pm in the Prayer Room at UCC, Cork.
