With over 25,000 copies sold of the hardcover version, this paperback edition of Macrina Wiederkehrs best-selling book invites readers to learn how the practice of consciously pausing for prayer at the seven sacred moments of each day can make their daily passage through time a more sacred pilgrimage. Using scripture, poetry, reflections, personal stories, and quotes from a rich array of spiritual teachers for many religions, Wiederkehr helps readers become more attuned to living in the present moment and develop a kindred spirit with the rich tradition of the sacred hours. "Seven Sacred Pauses" is a wonderful gift to those who seek to find balance in their busy days and to bring the practice of the Divine Hours home to their own hearts.

    This is a serious and thoughtful book about how to consider prayer time throughout the day. Invaluable for all.

    This book is a rich devotional resource as it follows the sacred rhythms of the day from Matins or Vigils to Compline or Night Prayer. Seven times in the day we are invited to pause, even for a brief moment, to reflect and say a prayer. Although written by a Benedictine sister, it is still possible for the lay person to make these pauses part of the daily practice of devotion. In this way we are honouring the natural rhythms of the day and night. No matter where one is, one can pause briefly. Sister Macrina, as well as analysing each of the sacred hours, adds excerpts from scripture, poetry and personal stories which we can read at leisure. This is truly a valuable handbook full of readings and instructions on how to honour the sacred rhythms of the day.
