The healing power of prayer has been studied thought-out the world. The origin of prayer can essentially be found in a request or act that seeks to connect and communicate with a deity or deities. This study focused on the healthcare perceptions of those of Eastern and Western religions --- particularly Christianity, Sikhism, Buddhism, and Islam --- and the purpose of this study was to examine and explore the effect of prayer on individuals from Kern County. In order to conduct the following research, a review of the Holistic Health Model and Carl Jung's Spiritual Theory was utilized to provide different perspective literature pertaining to religion. The purpose of the study was to explore what praying means to individuals and to determine what power prayer holds; it also contributed to the learning and treatment paradigm of local healthcare professionals. A qualitative research process was conducted through virtual face-to- face interviews with sixteen female participants from Kern County. The two primary themes that emerged from this research included the following: (1) empowerment and (2) dealing with fear. Of these themes, six subcategories were delineated: (1) connection with a deity; (2) spirituality, comfort, relaxation, strength, and positivity; (3) living life with a purpose (i.e., guidance); (4) prayer to displace anxiety, depression, and guilt; (5) religion to address illness and struggle; and (6) religion to address hope. Recommendations were based on the literature review and participant responses, addressing limitations within the research design, moving towards holistic health, and patient-based needs.
