New praying animations I made using my own ai mocap, as a warm up before starting creating new dialogue gestures. Priests and priestesses will make use of this animations. Your characters or followers will use it as well, if this kinds of idle markers are nearby (for your characters with mods like Wintersun - Faiths of Skyrim, Immersive Interactions, Dovahkiin Relaxes Too, for followers while sandboxing with mods like Nether's Follower Framework or just Followers can Relax).
25 times longer duration compared to vanilla animations (new animations are 36.5 sec vs under 1.5 seconds with the old ones)
Main file made to fit female skeleton: no sliding feet or "stretching" torso in transition in and out of this animations
Built-in" transitions (vanilla has none, which leads to unnaturally quick transition)
