Praying for Others Seems to Help Anger Fade | Caring.com

Saying a prayer for another person may help people control their negative emotions after being insulted by a stranger, researchers report.

A series of studies found that after people were intentionally provoked into anger, asking them to pray for a person who needs extra help or support (a cancer patient, for example), helped calm them down.

The researchers also suggested that the method seemed to be effective even in people who weren't particularly religious or regular churchgoers. Nor did religious affiliation make a difference in the ability of prayer to calm people, although nearly all participants identified themselves as Christian, according to the report published online March 18 in the journal Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin.
