A striking book of contemporary spirituality based on the medieval writings of a woman ahead of her time, Julian of Norwich. An anchorite who lived in a monastic cell attached to a parish church, she found inspiration in the simple domestic detail of her life and used it as a springboard to prayer and contemplation. Penny Roker's warm and gentle book enables readers to make an 'armchair retreat' using nothing more than things around the house to access and apply the spiritual riches of Julian. Not everyone can get away on an organised retreat, but this is a complete resource for making a retreat alone at home. It is equally appropriate for guided group meditation, of course. Each day includes a scripture reading, an excerpt from Julian's Showing of Love, a meditation to read, a practical spiritual exercise, questions to reflect upon, closing prayers, further scriptures, and reading ideas.

Retreats are increasingly popular, and in stressful and anxious times, perhaps the need to refocus our lives on what will nurture and sustain us inwardly is greater than ever. The 'credit crunch' may mean that staying at a retreat centre is unaffordable, family or work commitments make it impossible for some to get away, and the housebound have little choice about where they will pursue their spiritual journey. This simple resource offers a complete kit for making a seven day retreat without going away. It is both gentle and versatile, recognising that some can only grab ten minutes' solitude on the way to work or when the children are asleep, while others have more time on their hands than they would like. Penny Roker, a religious sister and experienced retreat conductor, provides a complete day by day programme using the seven days of creation as a pattern, plus many hints and tips for making the most of the time given to yourself and to God.
Penny Roker rsm is member of the Sisters of Mercy in London. She has wide experience of leading retreats and using guided mediations in her prison chaplaincy work.She is author of 'Homely Love:prayers and reflections using the words of Julian of Norwich'
