Prayer & Contemplative Practice

Not emptying the mind, but filling it with the presence and truth of Christ. Stillness that opens your heart to God's peace.

A welcome from Jo is on the way Jo's video introduction to this practice will live right here. In the meantime, you can catch her on YouTube @TIYOFI.

Rooted in Christ, Not the East

Christian meditation and contemplative prayer have deep roots in the life of the Church. This practice is not about emptying the mind but filling it with the presence and truth of Christ. Jo guides sessions that incorporate breath, silence, Scripture, and spoken prayer.

The goal is communion, not technique. Whether you have prayed your whole life or are only beginning to learn, these sessions create unhurried space to listen, to rest, and to receive the peace that Scripture promises to those who fix their minds on God.

What to Expect

Breath, Scripture & Silence

Sessions draw on time-tested Christian practices such as breath prayer and lectio divina, the slow, prayerful reading of Scripture. Jo offers gentle guidance so you always know where to rest your attention, while leaving room for the Spirit to do the deeper work.

  • Rooted in Biblical truth, not Eastern religion
  • Breath prayer and lectio divina practices
  • Guided or self-directed formats available

"Be still, and know that I am God."
