Eucharistic adoration is focused on the blessed sacrament and can be performed when the Eucharist is exposed and when it is not.
When the Eucharist is exposed for viewing, it is desplayed in a monstrance. This normally occurs during a special service devoted to the blessed sacrament. This is believed to be important practice by the catholic church.
Many catholics perform this for an hour called the Holy Hour. This is inspired by the story of Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane.
Eucharistic adoration is said to let the worshipper 'get in touch with the presence of christ'
It is believed that jesus himself is present in the blessed sacrament, so it is our duty to adore it.
