"Blink," a fun series of short videos on CatholicTV in Boston, asked me to film a ten-part series called "Ways of Prayer." We move through: An Overview of Prayer, the Rosary, Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, the Mass as Prayer, Nature Prayer, Centering Prayer, Lectio Divina, Ignatian Prayer, and the Examination of Conscience. Here's the link to the full series. And here's the clip on Lectio Divina.

Seriously ,they are very good .
It might also be helpful Fr Martin to point out the difference between the "Examen of Conscience" and the "Examen of consciousness". This can be studied by reading the excellent Fr Aschenbrenner.
