A rule of life is created by intentionally taking prayer practices and bringing them into your daily rhythms.

One approach to creating your own rule of life is to imagine your soul as a cultivated garden. As you live, you will find that areas of your life need to be tended, weeded, and sometimes redone. Other areas may be for resting, enjoying, and relaxing. As you live your life and tend your garden you will make adjustments that work for you. This is the point of a rule of life, to adjust your practices to what works best for you and your relationship with God.
