Lyn Holley Doucet is a revered spiritual director and counselor. The author of numerous books including the award-winning Water from Stones: An Inner Journey, Doucet leads powerful retreats that combine her solid grounding in the Ignatian spiritual tradition with her talents in ministry. Now, Catholic women can join her for a restorative audio retreat made especially for them.
Doucet's retreat centers on the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola, a trusted pathway to Christian spiritual renewal. If you're a woman whose spiritual life needs some rejuvenation, look no further. A gifted storyteller, she infuses gentle humor into her lectures, painting images that will lead you into deeply healing practices of prayer. Throughout, Doucet remains firmly rooted in the strong foundation of the Exercises and the Ignatian spiritual tradition.
Doucet gives clear and specific guidelines for setting up to pray with the retreat. As she commiserates frankly with the stressed-filled lives of many women today, she offers tips for how to carve out time for these much-needed spiritual practices.
The Ignatian teaching on disordered attachments that Doucet offers provides an apt lens through which to better understand the compulsions, anxieties, and restlessness that so often bog us down.
Come away without leaving home. As you draw closer to Jesus, you'll learn how best to receive the gifts of abundant new life and love He can offer your thirsty spirit.
"When Lyn Holley Doucet speaks, people listen: women and men both, firm contemplatives as well as struggling hearts. She has only grown more powerful since the first of her several books earned a Catholic Press Association award for excellence."
