The sounds of silence

In this deeply reflective episode, we sit down with Rich Lewis, author, speaker, and coach, to explore the power and promise of centering prayer—a meditative practice rooted in silence and stillness. Rich shares his personal journey into this contemplative tradition and how it led to profound inner transformation and spiritual awakening.

Together, we discuss the challenges and rewards of embracing silence in a noisy world, how centering prayer differs from other mindfulness practices, and how anyone—regardless of background—can begin this transformative journey. Rich also talks about his newest book, Sitting with God: A Journey To Your True Self Through Centering Prayer, and what it means to encounter the Divine in stillness.

Whether you're new to centering prayer or looking to deepen your spiritual practice, this episode offers both inspiration and practical guidance.
