Synopsis
A true champion keeps body and soul in balance. Raising one's face to the sun during a five-minute break from work. Tossing and turning in bed when insomnia strikes. Squeezing in a half-hour run at the end of a busy day. These are just a few of the places we can engage in the invigorating prayers and exercises in The Joy of Spiritual Fitness. Ray Simpson's innovative programme gives us fifty spiritual exercises that involve both body and soul. Some are more intense and some are gentler. As we open ourselves to them, they will expand our hearts, deepen our love for God and others and increase our joy. Our 'personal trainer' engages the senses through imaginative prayer to create paths of renewal. Both inspirational and active, this book can be dipped into at will. Its a-la-carte menu will delight, enrich and inspire at every phase of the journey, helping us to stretch, strengthen and grow.
