Sometimes when I'm doing Salah, I just don't feel like my heart is in it. I do have the intention to pray, but I just feel like I'm saying the words and going through the motions. I'm sure other people experience this as well. What can I do to change this? Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

Asalamu Alekium , my suggestion would be , try to understand full meanings of and translation of Surah FAtiha , 4 Quls ( Al kafirun , Al naas , Al falak , Al akhlas ) and other small surah like Surah kausar , and when you recite them during salah , recite them by translating its meaning ,this way you can know what you are saying to your Allah

when you say Allahu Akbar , say from heart admit from heart that really Allah is great

when you say subhana rabiyal azeem and rabiyal aala , say from heart ., That Yes all praise is to Allah
