This form of meditation, popularized by Trappist monk Father Thomas Keating, focuses your concentration on the present momenta nd puts the power of your intention to work. Workshop leader Kris Koestner was first drawn to Centering prayer because it is a surrender method, and, she says, "Since I'm not very good at surrendering, I figured this was the practice for me! After six years of doing centering prayer regularly, I can honestly say that it has changed my life."
