In the last thirty years of the twentieth century there was an unprecedented renewal in the practice of personal spiritual guidance. John J. English, S.J. (1924-2004) was one of the major pioneers of this movement in North America. In the early summer of 1969, he began the personally directed Spiritual Exercises, with a program that was called the “Institute on Practical Asceticism” at Loyola House of the Guelph Centre Of Spirituality. His original book, “Spiritual Freedom: from an experience of the Ignatian Exercises to the art of spiritual direction” (1973) has become a classic and has twice been reissued in revised editions.
