Prayer typically involves communicating with a higher power, often through requests, gratitude, or worship. Meditation, on the other hand, focuses on quieting the mind, cultivating mindfulness, and achieving inner peace, without necessarily invoking a higher power.

Prayer is mostly focused on the outer world while meditation is often focused on the inner world. Practiced together they can be a powerful addition to your daily routines, adding a sense of calm, peace and can increase connection to ones self and your beliefs.

we're trying too hard to control our mind and our practice. Meditation isn't mind control, magic, or a superpower … even if we wish it were. It's a practice that teaches us to be comfortable with our mind just as it is.
