Synopsis

Increase Your Happiness Through Faith and Spirituality

Prayer takes many forms: Sitting in silence, walking mediation, using prayer beads or folding your hands every night and talking to God are all forms of prayer. If you want something different in your life, you must pray a different prayer. We are constantly communing with the Divine throughout our daily lives―even in the most ordinary activities. The Woman’s Book of Prayer will show you all the ways you can pray, so that you can find the methods that work for you.

Draw inspiration from a variety of sources: Comprised of both mindfulness meditations, prayer practices and selections of sacred texts, poems and blessings, The Woman’s Book of Prayer by Becca Anderson, author of Prayers for Hard Times and Every Day Thankful, gathers words of encouragement, comfort and sustenance for women. From Peace Pilgrim to Psalms to Dolly Parton, this collection of power thoughts and purposeful prayers will help you get inspired, and more importantly, stay inspired.

Change your life by changing your prayer: Author Becca Anderson credits her recovery from a serious illness to the power of daily prayer. But she had to change the way she prayed and set off on an exploration of the myriad methods people use and uncovering the world’s best prayers. The Woman’s Book of Prayer shows how to change your life by changing your prayer. By carefully and consciously choosing affirming thoughts and deliberately looking for blessings at every opportunity, you will literally create a new life for yourself.

The Woman’s Book of Prayer will help you:

• discover how to focus on what you DO want, not what you don’t want
• learn how to make your prayers positive and affirming
• find out how to get more of what you want in your life

About this title

Review

"Prayer is one of the most powerful tools we humans have. I highly recommend a twice daily dose. Becca Anderson's daily devotional for women is pure inspiration that offers much comfort, solace, hope and healing. " - Louise Baxter, author of Happiness A to Z

"Praying is so good for the you and also connects us to the divine. Whether you fold your hands and talk to God or meditate or take a moment of silence every night, it is a important to incorporate this into your spiritual practice. Prayer is excellent self care for your soul."
-Cerridwen Greenleaf, author of Prayers to the Moon

"Women’s prayers take many forms – some obvious, others subtle ... occasionally surprising. We bow our heads and close our eyes as we pray for blessings, protection, and healing. Often, we drop to our knees as we seek to know God’s will. Sometimes we look up – to the clouds, to the moon, to the sunrise or sunset, to find spiritual connection with Heaven above.

Many of us quiet our bodies and our minds in meditation – searching for our higher selves, the indwelling God, the inherent goodness that resides deep insideAnd perhaps most importantly, we often gather with kindred spirits, fellow seekers, to pray in community – for we know that the Kingdom of God isn’t just within us, it is among us. Wherever two or more are gathered, God is there. We find the wisdom, guidance, security, strength, insight, meaning, comfort, and love that we yearn for whenever we pray together. This is a wonderful collection of prayers by and for women – old and young, from many walks of life, from near and far, from past and present. In gathering this collection, the author invites you to add your own prayers, too."
―BJ Gallagher, Author of If God Is Your Co-Pilot, Switch Seats and coauthor of Your Life Is Your Prayer
