St. Ignatius is closely affiliated with a group of practices called Lectio Divina. This is Latin for ‘Divine Reading.’
Many of these practices help the practitioner to tune into particularly phrases from a reading.
To explore one form of Lectio Divina, click here.
To explore a second form of Lectio, click here.
To consider a third, click here.
For a fourth, click here.
Once these phrases are tuned into, they are often meditated over in the manner of a breath prayer. As a result, after you give these practices a try, you might try to add a little variety by using the first several steps of these practices, but once you have found your sacred phrase, you might click here and engage with that phrase in a different manner.
