So I read that deists can pray…?

Alright, so I became a deist a few days ago :) and I read this on Wikipedia:

“Some deists do not believe in divine intervention but still find value in prayer as a form of meditation, self-cleansing, and spiritual renewal. Such prayers are often appreciative (i.e., “Thank you for …”) rather than supplicative (i.e., “Please God grant me …”)”

I like that, but I was wondering…how would a deist pray?

For example, Christians pray with their hands clasped, and sometimes kneel down. Muslims bow and prostrate.

How should I pray?

@ Acid Zebra, I am procrastinating when I should be doing something else. I just decided to ask this to pass the time and get some ideas :)
@ Anony, I know, I don’t want to ask for anything.

The gift of life is precious enough, why would I ask for anything more :)

Ive never heard any rules about a specific way of prayer for christians, I know muslims have a particular method but in either case I dont know that it is verbal even.
Catholics do have the our father and hail mary prayers of course but I dont think that that is their only way of praying.
Prayer can be silent, it can be while you are walking down the street or it could be out loud.
The important part is your thoughts.
