I’m Orthodox and we don’t pray to Micheal/others but rather venerate.
Let us pray to Jesus alone, and ask our Lord and Savior for all that is in Heaven to Pray for us.

To respect them
Personally I don’t practice veneration, I feel very uncomfortable doing it, because of past sins

pray means to make a petition. venerate means to show respect. neither is equated with worship.

Prayer to our Guardian Angel
O Holy Angel, keeping guard over my wretched soul and my passionate life, do not forsake me, a sinner, nor depart from me because of my incontinence. Do not give the evil enemy room to overcome me by force of this mortal body. Strengthen my weak and feeble hand, and set me on the way of salvation. Yea, O Holy Angel of God, guardian and protector of my wretched soul and body, forgive me everything by which I have offended you all the days of my life, and even what I have done this past night; protect me during this day, and guard me from every temptation of the enemy, that I may not anger God by any sin. Pray to the Lord for me, that He may confirm me in His fear and prove me a worthy servant of His goodness. Amen.
