The connection is to help focus yourself. As human beings we are sinful by nature and when we pray we are trying to put aside our flesh, which is what we consider everything about us that is sinful. To add fasting to prayer is even more productive in the sense that we are trying to kill our fleshy desires in a visual way. We are also trying to teach our body discipline and to focus more on what our creator is trying to tell us.
