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. \nWhat You’ll Explore \n\nThe metaphysical foundation of Spiritual Mind Treatment and why it works\nThe illusion of separation—and how to return to the truth of Oneness\nThe Five Steps of Affirmative Prayer and how to move through them with confidence\nHow gratitude opens the door to transformation\nHow to write and speak Treatments for yourself and others\nThe relationship between Consciousness\, Awareness\, and the activity of prayer\nPractical application: praying in real life\, for real situations\n\nWho This Class Is For \nThis class is for anyone who wants to go beyond “hoping things will work out” and learn to pray with clarity\, conviction\, and spiritual authority. It is open to all levels—from those exploring Science of Mind for the first time to longtime practitioners ready to go deeper.
