Did you know that there is a difference between meditation and prayer? I have learned that meditation is when you sit calm, and quiet, and listen for guidance and wisdom.

Prayer is giving appreciation for seeing what is already occurring rather than beseeching for something to occur. For example: If we are desiring rain, then praying for rain might look like ‘Thank You Source/God” I appreciate the rain being bestowed upon our land as I feel it seeping through my toes nourishing our land to provide sustenance. It is already done!

That brings us to the subject of healing. Some people use both meditation and prayer for healing. If one works better for you than the other continue to use it. To me healing is when the extraordinary perfection of the love of a Higher Power manifests itself physically. This can be reached either by meditation or prayer. Humans on this earth experience what is called hurt, pain, traumatic events etc. that cut us off from this Higher Power of love. Love is the Healing Elixir if you will.
