The Ignatian Examen is a reflective prayer method developed by St. Ignatius of Loyola, designed to discern God’s presence in daily life. This guide adapts the Examen for an annual review, helping you reflect on the past year with gratitude, awareness, and intention for the new year ahead. Much like a daily examen, this worksheet helps to look back over the course of a year as a means to discern the Lord’s presence in the Consolations and Desolations of the year.
