Prayer is not about persuading God to act differently—it is about shifting our own consciousness to align with the truth of what already is. Spiritual Mind Treatment, the form of affirmative prayer at the heart of Religious Science and Science of Mind, is one of the most elegant and powerful spiritual technologies we have. It doesn’t beg or bargain. It affirms, recognizes, and rests in the knowing that wholeness is the only reality.

In this eight-week course, Rev. Abigail guides you through both the philosophy and the practice of Spiritual Mind Treatment. Whether you’re new to affirmative prayer or deepening a practice you’ve had for years, this class will meet you exactly where you are.

What You’ll Explore

• The metaphysical foundation of Spiritual Mind Treatment and why it works
• The illusion of separation—and how to return to the truth of Oneness
• The Five Steps of Affirmative Prayer and how to move through them with confidence
• How gratitude opens the door to transformation
• How to write and speak Treatments for yourself and others
• The relationship between Consciousness, Awareness, and the activity of prayer
• Practical application: praying in real life, for real situations
