Pilgrims of Prayer

This Pilgrims of prayer booklet, produced by the Institute of Jesuits, introduces exercises that you may find useful to practise prayer.

There are many exercises for improving our physical health and wellbeing. Ignatius of Loyola wrote what he called the ‘Spiritual Exercises’, a variety of ways of praying to develop our spiritual health and wellbeing, our relationship with God and the world. Just like physical exercise, if we talk about it but don’t actually engage in any exercise, this will not be very fruitful! So, this booklet, put together by the Jesuit Institute, introduces exercises that you may find useful to practise. This booklet introduces a number of these prayer exercises and guides you through them, download below.
