The Cloisterites' eremitic rule named itself "Nesting in the Sacred Heart."  The rule calls for the hermits to nest in the Sacred Heart of Jesus as a reparation for those who ignore Him and His Gifts.
 
The rule is based on that of Sts. Bruno & Columba, and incorporates the spirituality of Blessed Emilie D'Oultremont and the Cloisterites.  There are also passages from the Camaldolese; St. Francis of Assisi; and St. Albert of Jerusalem. 

Nesting in the Sacred Heart contents:
 
The Spirit of the Hermits
 
The Life of the Hermits
 
St. Francis of Assisi's Rule for Hermitages (for 2 to 4 hermits)
 
St. Albert of Jerusalem's Rule (for more than 5 hermits)
