things.
The first is a form of meditation - whatever you call it, it taps into the same thing.
The second is magical thinking - wishing on a star or throw a coin in the wishing well.
Your prayers for your own health are no different than my meditations for my own. But prayers for another cannot affect the other, except for adversely. If some jackass was to come into my hospital room to pray over me it would send my blood pressure through the roof - not a good thing.
