Here are a few suggestions:

1.  Take a few deep breaths before you start.

2.  Sit up straight, and make sure your back isn’t slouching.

3.  Let go of any other thoughts that distract you, and focus on what you’re praying about.

4.  Visualize yourself succeeding in whatever you’re praying about.

5.  Listen to what the Holy Spirit is telling you.

Well if you’re not sure what to focus on, then here’s a good opportunity to just let go and meditate on something that feels good and refreshing.  You could start with relaxing into your body, breathing deeply, and noticing how the air moves through your nose.  If you’re not sure what that feels like, you could try breathing through your nose for a few breaths, then breathe out through your mouth, and notice how each feels different.
