Democratic presidential candidate and self-help author Marianne Williamson said two minutes of prayer was a good way of fighting against Hurricane Dorian before backtracking.

“The Bahamas, Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas…may all be in our prayers now,” Williamson said Wednesday in the since-deleted tweet. “Millions of us seeing Dorian turn away from land is not a wacky idea; it is a creative use of the power of the mind. Two minutes of prayer, visualization, meditation for those in the way of the storm.”
