The power of prayer as one of meditation methods for health is well known to those who believe in God. I chose this article to show that prayer is just another type of meditation which can help improve health and other aspects of our life. Large number of people in the United States are practicing prayer as a form of alternative therapy for healing.

“That’s right, regular prayer and meditation has been shown in numerous scientific studies to be an important factor in living longer and staying healthy. Prayer is the most widespread alternative therapy in America today. Over 85 percent of people confronting a major illness pray, according to a University of Rochester study. That is far higher than taking herbs or pursuing other nontraditional healing modalities. And increasingly the evidence is that prayer works.

It doesn’t matter if you pray for yourself or for others, pray to heal an illness or for peace in the world, or simply sit in silence and quiet the mind — the effects appear to be the same. A wide variety of spiritual practices have been shown to help alleviate the stress levels, which are one of the major risk factors for disease. They also are powerful ways to maintain a positive outlook and successfully weather the trials which come to all of us in life.” Click here to read more

As you can see prayer works the same way as a meditation and produces the feeling of control, alertness, peace of mind and helping reduce stress levels. Another great aspect of the prayer is that you can pray not only for yourself, but for others as well.

People who regularly practice prayer as one of meditation methods for health are more healthy and live longer and happier life.
