A lot of people think about daily prayers as something that they have been taught to do and take it as is without looking beyond the act of praying. This act of spirituality also affects the body and mind in ways that modern science can understand.

From a certain perspective, a daily prayer is a form of daily meditation. The act of praying is a process that enforces positive thinking, acceptance, and a way of coping with everyday problems. Most people experience a form of stress relief after praying which is similar to what meditation aims to achieve. This has physical effects as it lowers blood pressure, heart rate and helps boost the immune system by lowering cortisol levels.

Even if many do not think much about how beneficial daily prayer is for their mind and body, everyone that prays experiences these benefits. It is a habit that should be adopted by more people as a form of meditation and manifestation of their belief and faith.
