When meditation feels too hard, I truly recommend that you find a prayer or poem that speaks to you and read it slowly, perhaps several times, allowing it to reach to your deepest being. It may also help to write it out or speak it aloud. For me prayer is at least as important as meditation. Its not about asking for...so much as receiving what the prayer itself gives. Thats why I wrote Heaven on Earth: out of gratitude for those innumerable moments in which Ive been saved by timeless words of consolation, connection and beauty.
