“The saints breathe correctly every day, in every moment. If you read the words of the Holy Fathers on prayer in the Philokalia, you will see that connecting the Name of Jesus and the prayer to breathing was not a technique, even though it was called a method: the method of St. Hesychius, for example. It is a method because the Saint also teaches us and helps us participate in his way of being and praying, in a healthy way of being, which is a way of being connected to God.”
