Mastering Shmiras Halashon

 Elokai Nitzor Lishonee Mayrah.


I have been  given the framework in which to daven to Hashem in my Siddur. 


A place in which I can master articulating what it is I really want.


By the time I reach Shmone Esray , Each Bracha  helps me express what it is that my Neshama needs to express, custom tailored for me..


The  more I dissect the words and try to understand them, the more I get clear about my higher purpose ..Just as what happens with learning Torah..  


Tefillah is truly so healing..and Life restoring to me as I am able to restore me more and more Biezras Hashem Who gave us the gift of Siddur (order) through Tefilla. 


After I am able to experience this speech of Tov, This speech of my Neshama and see what is possible…


I say, “Elokai Nitzor Lishonee Mayra”


Hashem, The Source of All Powers,  I know what is possible and  I need this gift of “speech” protected.   I can’t bear to damage this.   I need this protection and to continue throughout my day and life without being used for Chas V’shalom  anything limited.


This Kavana was inspired by Rabbi Weinberg who taught the following: 

One of the best ways to master Shimaras Halashon is to strategize about Tefillah” (RSW)
