Centering Prayer has helped me to accept myself as I am and, in that process, I’ve become able to accept others as they are. I started experiencing the patient more as a whole person and not just as something to zero-in on – in my case – the eye exam. Those eyes were attached to a body and there was a spirit in that body. So, it’s enriched my entire life.
La Oración Centrante me ha ayudado a aceptarme a mi mismo tal como soy, y en ese proceso me he vuelto capaz de aceptar a los otros tal como son. Empecé a percibir a los pacientes más como personas totales y no solamente como algo en lo que enfocar mi atención – en mi caso, en el examen ocular. Esos ojos estaban sujetos a un cuerpo, y había un espíritu en ese cuerpo. Así que ha enriquecido mi vida entera.
