There are so many great choices for monk secondaries, I'm sure you'll find one that suits your playing style.
Dude! i hope your joking

since you say you just started, I recommend [skill]Glyph of Lesser Energy[/skill]
you get it in pre-searing, easy to use and very effective

seriously can you go back to presearing?
you know why BiP is terrible on a monk's bar?
basically u have wasted an elite that
1) cant be used on urself
2) sacrificed 33% health that you/other monk have to waste energy again to heal it back
and OoB+PS? Are you serious?
Let's say a 11-10-10 attribute spread
OoB+PS=15en used and you gain 16en = net 1en gain
not to say you have wasted 10 attribute points dedicated only to this ELITE
But OoB alone is not that bad i must say

if you really, really want an elite e-management
[skill]Healer's Boon[/skill]
[skill]Healer's Covenant[/skill] (not very good actually)
[skill]Blessed Light[/skill]
Hell even [skill]Zealous Benediction[/skill] is better

I just started protting with my monk, here's my bar:

16 (12+3+1) Protection Prayers / 13 (12+1) Divine Favor

[skill]Blessed Light[/skill][skill]Reversal Of Fortune[/skill][skill]Shield Of Absorption[/skill][skill]Guardian[/skill]
[skill]Glyph Of Lesser Energy[/skill][skill]Protective Spirit[/skill][skill]Aegis[/skill][skill]Resurrection Signet[/skill]

Advantages: Balanced protection with decent healing capabilities and hex/condition removal.
Disadvantages: Aegis is slow to cast, build can drain your energy if you mash out blessed light.

My previous experience was with smite class monks. I usually run a smite bar like this:

16 Smiting Prayers (12+3+1) / 12 Inspiration Magic / 4 (3+1) Protection Prayers

[skill]Mantra Of Signets[/skill][skill]Signet Of Judgment[/skill][skill]Mantra Of Inscriptions[/skill][skill]Bane Signet[/skill]
[skill]Smite Hex[/skill][skill]Reversal Of Damage[/skill][skill]Ether Feast[/skill][skill]Rebirth[/skill]

Advantages: High knockdown ability, can rebirth with minimal impact on build efficiency, self heal and hex removal. DPS gets more significant the farther into the game you are.
Disadvantages: Low base DPS, No proper defensive skills.

And I'm not really one for Healing, but here's what I usually roll on Dunkorro:

15 (12+2+1) Healing Prayers / 10 (9+1) Divine Favor / 9 Inspiration Magic

[skill]Healing Light[/skill][skill]Dwayna's Kiss[/skill][skill]Signet Of Rejuvenation[/skill][skill]Healing Seed[/skill]
[skill]Vigorous Spirit[/skill][skill]Leech Signet[/skill][skill]Power Drain[/skill][skill]Resurrection Signet[/skill]

Advantages: Very energy efficient, cheap spammables that wont kill your energy pips, 2 interrupts
Disadvantages: No spike heal, Leech signet could be replaced with another heal. Vigorous Spirit is a bit...
