"What if a seven-second pause could transform your life? Caroline Oakes' warm-hearted Practice the Pauseexplores this question as a radically inclusive path for us all. Bringing together the wisdom of Jesus' ancient contemplative practice with the exciting, concrete discoveries of neuroscience, plus the sagest voices from all traditions, she takes us on an interspiritual journey to awaken--and keep awake--the spark of the divine within." --Carmen Acevedo Butcher, PhD, translator of Brother Lawrence's Practice of the Presenceand of Cloud of Unknowing "I've been thinking that there needs to be a book that connects the dots between contemplative Christianity and neuroscience; I've also thought that we need a good book on Jesus's own spiritual practice. Caroline Oakes has written an excellent book that fills both of these needs. Practice the Pauseis the type of book that you'll go back to again and again--and you'll recommend it to all your friends." --Carl McColman, author of Eternal Heartand The Big Book of Christian Mysticism "Practice the Pauseis a WAKE UP call to see how Jesus' own practice, science, and being human indeed do dance together, and it is a call to STAY AWAKE to the ongoing intentional unfolding of my spiritual journey." --Fr Carl J. Arico, founding member of Contemplative Outreach, author of Taste of Silence "Caroline Oakes artfully weaves together the depth, breadth, and wholeness of the contemplative journey around the unifying theme of the transformative power of the pause. Her remarkable achievement is that this weaving is accomplished in a straightforward and accessible form in which she gently leads the reader into both a brain-centered and a heart-centered understanding of the connection between even the simplest spiritual practices and our ability to transform our lives and the lives of others through contemplation in action. As an added gift, Ms. Oakes links the reader to the vast array of literary and biblical resources from which she abundantly draws." --William Redfield, Episcopal priest and founder of Wisdom's Work "Viewing Jesus as a practitioner of contemplative prayer, Caroline Oakes takes readers on journeys through the bible which reveal the depth of Jesus' prayer life and its intimate connection with activist ministry. This re-framing, along with practical helps and explorations of contemplative neuroscience which show the healing efficacy of prayer, make for a great read for spiritual seekers and Christians who long for a fresh take on their faith tradition." --The Rev. Jonathan Linman, Ph.D., Pastor of Faith Lutheran Church, Phoenix, AR, and former director of General Theological Seminary's Center for Christian Spirituality "A rich and desperately-needed Wisdom primer Practice the Pause artfully bridges the gaps between neuroscience, contemplation, and contemporary Christianity to present anew the life, message, and prayer practice of our Master Teacher Jesus." --Jane Savage Woods, Women's Wisdom Guide, Circle Facilitator, and Spiritual Companion at Waking House "In the tradition of wisdom teachers, Oakes leads us on a rich spiritual pilgrimage out of our Western paradigm and into the East, where Jesus spent time in contemplation and prayer. Oakes explores the practices at the heart of Jesus' mission of 'metanoia' - true transformation - to be fully alive and explores these practices' extraordinary positive neurological impact. For anyone who seeks the intersection of science and faith and a new way of being,Practice the Pauseis for you." --Malika Cox, OnBeing Social Healing Fellow; Author or the Flourish OKC Restorative Justice Learning Curriculum; MA Practical Theology, MPhil Conflict Resolution & Reconciliation

Synopsis
These days, many of us live in a state of overreactive fight-or-flight response and chronic stress. The demands of modern life pull us in all directions and can often put the meaningful connections in our lives at risk--connections to our deepest selves, to others, and even to God. But there is good news. New developments in brain science have recently proven that an intentional practice of pausing for a few minutes of meditation, prayer, or other contemplative practice actually rewires our brain in ways that make us calmer, less reactive, and better able to see the bigger picture. In Practice the Pause, spiritual director and writer Caroline Oakes offers easy-to-understand explanations of how this new brain science is confirming what every spiritual tradition has been telling us for millennia: by practicing the pause, we become more self-aware and better able to understand others. We become more "God aware." With a refreshing focus on the Eastern Christian understanding of Jesus as a master of wisdom, Oakes shines a spotlight on Jesus's own centering pause practice as a transformative path for personal and social change. We learn that even a seven-second pause practice can move us beyond the fight-or-flight responses of our ego in our daily lives and actually equip us to cultivate the common good in the world., These days, many of us live in a state of overreactive fight-or-flight response and chronic stress.

In Practice the Pause, spiritual director and writer Caroline Oakes offers easy-to-understand explanations of how this new brain science is confirming what every spiritual tradition has been telling us for millennia: by practicing the pause, we become more self-aware and better able to understand others. We become more "God aware." With a refreshing focus on the Eastern Christian understanding of Jesus as a master of wisdom, Oakes shines a spotlight on Jesus's own centering pause practice as a transformative path for personal and social change. We learn that even a seven-second pause practice can move us beyond the fight-or-flight responses of our ego in our daily lives and actually equip us to cultivate the common good in the world., As humans, we are wired for fight or flight responses in times of stress. But today, many of us live with an overreactive stress response as the demands of modern life pull us in all directions, putting not only our physical health at risk, but also the meaningful connections in our lives--connections to our deepest selves, to others, and even to God. But there is good news. New developments in brain science are confirming what spiritual teachers of every wisdom tradition have been telling us for millennia: meditation and contemplative practice can calm that sense of fight or flight and enhance our sense of well-being. In Practice the Pause, spiritual director and writer Caroline Oakes offers new perspectives on the revolutionary potential of Jesus' own contemplative practice, considering this exciting new neuroscience and showing how the "centering pause" of contemplative practice can rewire our brain circuitry to be less reactive, more self-aware, and more compassionate. Combining accessible explanations of recent breakthroughs in neuroscience studies and introductions to perspective-changing ancient spiritual practices, Practice the Pause explores Jesus's contemplative practice as a path for transformation. Through practices such as Centering Prayer, lectio divina, and the seven-second pause, we can radically shift our own consciousness, enabling us to move beyond the overreactive responses of our ego in daily life and toward an awakened, expansive, and divine-centered way of being., Combining exciting developments in brain science and ancient contemplative tradition, spiritual director Caroline Oakes offers new perspectives on the revolutionary potential of Jesus's contemplative practice, demonstrating how engaging these practices can rewire our brains to be less reactive, more self-aware, and more compassionate.
