Sacred Space
Sacred Space is an online and app-based prayer resource created by the Irish Jesuits, designed to help users connect with God through structured, short, and guided daily prayer sessions. With ADHD in mind, Sacred Space provides a low-pressure, distraction-friendly format that supports emotional regulation, mindfulness, and spiritual connection—without requiring a perfect setting or mindset.
Why Sacred Space Is Ideal for ADHD Support
Gentle Structure That Grounds a Scattered Mind
Each prayer session follows a consistent 6-step format—Presence, Freedom, Consciousness, The Word, Conversation, Conclusion. This predictable flow is ideal for ADHDers, helping to build spiritual routine, reduce overwhelm, and provide a clear path for daily reflection.
Designed for Modern Distraction
You don’t need a silent room or polished routine—Sacred Space is made for real life. Whether you’re using a laptop or the app on your phone, you can pause for prayer in the middle of a chaotic day, even with distractions around you. It’s flexible, accessible, and free of judgment.
Short Sessions That Respect ADHD Attention Spans
Each reflection takes only a few minutes—perfect for ADHDers who struggle with long devotionals or staying mentally present for extended periods. It's a quick spiritual reset that fits into busy, nonlinear lives.
Daily Gospel + Reflection That Deepens Awareness
The daily Gospel reading is paired with gentle questions and prompts that increase mindfulness and spiritual self-awareness, both of which are often underdeveloped or undernourished in ADHD brains.
Weekly Encouragement and Monthly Themes
With “Something to Think and Pray About” each week and alignment with seasonal liturgical themes, Sacred Space helps ADHDers stay anchored in time—a subtle way to combat time blindness while deepening spiritual rhythm.
