The way the Mercy Circle works is this: We pray individually at any time it is convenient on Mondays and Thursdays. We use Sidi’s prayer, as already stated. We connect our hearts to the heart of the group by intention and to the hearts of all those who need this healing. Its a blanket intention. There is also a list of names where people have requested prayers. Shamsa Houck will send periodic updates. We take names because it brings people comfort. We just take first names – no diagnosis. This prayer is for people with mental illness and even just mild anxiety   — the range. And its for the people who care for these people and are often very tired and lonely and stressed.

Maryam recently added these suggestions on how to connect with the people on the list:

I personally subscribe to the school of good intentions so here is my personal approach. I think everyone can follow their own guidance regarding this.I first ask Allah to connect my heart to the hearts of the circle members (who are praying). Then I ask Allah to send His Love, Comfort and Healing to all the people everywhere, who suffer from mental illness or psychological distress. Then I ask Allah to especially remember the beloveds who have requested healing and are on the list (or have been put on the list by loved ones. I gave at the whole list or scan down the list with my gaze and heart.  I do not read the names out loud or spend time with each individual name. Sometimes I gaze at the list before I do the prayer and then shut off the lights to pray deeply from inside.  I also ask Allah to send His Help to the loved ones who are caring for these people.
There is a link at the end of the prayers for an audio recording of all the prayers.
