Jungian in its orientation, this book distinguishes between the conscious or ego-self and the inner or unconscious self. The author encourages her readers to explore new forms of prayer. She suggests ways to enable them to let go of their ego-self control, free their imaginations and trust their inner selves to seek God in creative and vibrant ways. Drawing on her experiences in retreats and as a spiritual director, the author opens windows of prayer in the house of the self. She shows her readers the picture windows of imagination and dreams, the rattling windows of distractions and feelings, the stained glass windows of Scriptural prayer, and the bay windows of outward expression such as art, writing, music and dance. And she provides guidance for discerning the direction of the Spirit of God.
