Bodily Prayer: where the Practice comes from

It's as old as Christianity itself. Actually, it's older...

Bodily prayer is older than Christianity - by hundreds of years.

‘And at the evening sacrifice I rose from my fasting, with my garment and my cloak torn, and fell upon my knees and spread out my hands to the Lord my God.’

• Ezra 9:5 (at least 500 years before Jesus was born).
