Methods of Contemplation

I found these meditations on Insight Timer. I am enjoying their faith-based meditations.

I found Methods on Insight Timer as I was looking for Christian based meditations to help me de-stress. I have been in a burn out and lost the practice of my faith that used to be so vibrant. This podcast has given me tools to explore to bring back my practice, and I have found some that resonate very deeply and are new to me. I very much appreciate the soft, insightful and gentle approach taken in presenting different practices. You have taken me on a faith saving adventure in the last 3 months and I am very grateful. Please continue this important work.

In my years as a Christian I have been led in meditative prayer. Usually this occurred in group settings and focused more on an active conversation prayer experience, including a great deal of petitionary prayer, rather than a reflective meditation experience. My faith tradition was guarded in how it perceived meditation practices. I am glad to have found “Methods” as a gentle introduction to prayerful meditation I can do alone. I believe the methods here have brought me closer to the loving Creator of the universe, and closer to understanding myself.

This podcast is a well produced, gentle, and spacious invitation to spend some time being present in prayer and meditation.
