HEAD  SPIRITUAL  EXERCISE

 [This takes 10  minutes - only 10 minutes.]

Become aware of your head - your capital -

inside and outside - everything above your neck.

Using both hands touch the top of your head,

then your ears, eyes, nose, lips, chin, cheeks.

With the tips of your fingers play with the top

of your head - rubbing your skull - hair or no hair.

Touching your head, thank the Lord for your mind,  memory, thoughts, and all your stories. 

Touching your eyes - thank the Lord for what   you have seen so far. Choose 10 top sights.

Touching your nose, thank the Lord for your gift of scent - especially  fragrances you love.

Touching your mouth,  thank  the Lord for your mouth - your favorite words - your communions.

Touching your mouth thank the Lord for favorite meals, deserts, and drinks like Root Beer Floats.

Hands covering your face, say a prayer that

people who see you, see a smile and your joy.

[Do this  for 10 minutes - only 10 minutes.]
