Synopsis
A practical guide to maintaining spiritual awareness in daily life. We live in a body-conscious society with people filling gyms in an attempt to get, and stay, physically fit. The Ignatian Workout promotes the importance of achieving spiritual fitness and presents a dynamic program of "workouts" based on Saint Ignatius Loyola's Spiritual Exercises. Designed for reading, reflection, and prayer, The Ignatian Workout includes a brief history of St. Ignatius and an overview of the Spiritual Exercises. Based on a four-week program, originally designed as a 30-day retreat, each week focuses on different elements of the mystery of the Christian faith. Full of practical suggestions for becoming spiritually fit, the book concludes with a complete resource guide of books and Web sites for continued study.

Customer Reviews

Excellent introduction
Excellent introduction to Ignatian spirituality. Has practical exercises based loosely around the four weeks of the Spiritual Exercises. Lots of common sense - pray as you can not as you can't etc.

Would be a great help for anyone wanting to deepen their faith and prayer life.
