Just note that prayer can be a cause of depression if you find yourself in a religion that turns out not to work for you, so maybe try stopping praying, too.
Yep, for me personally religion was one of the major causes of my depression. And I've been happier as I cut it out of my life. Others find happiness in religion. Everyone is different, find what makes you happy.
Most of them have a contemplative style that can work.
- Catholic: adoration
- Protestant: centering prayer
- Buddhism: Zazen
- Islam: contemplation
That is probably why parent is dividing with Prayer and not multiplying with it.
I can't even express how much these simple things have changed my life (and the lives of those around me).
