Praying With the Executive Functions

This document has daily prayers in response to the eight executive functions: Self-Monitoring, Flexible Thinking, Emotional Control, Impulse Control, Organization, Working Memory, Planning & Prioritizing, Task Initiation. As a Priest and a Spiritual Director I have a bit of experience with prayer, but I’m not a neuroscience specialist and I have limited understanding and academic experience with the executive functions. This work is an effort to faithfully pray and to honor God in the work and flow of daily life, not as neuroscience in any form.


Can you help me out with this project of prayer? What nuances can you bring to my understanding of the executive functions, as well as prayer or scripture? I’m always open to hear and learn from others as I swim in these deep waters.
