Never stop the prayer

 

Say the Jesus Prayer “Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me” incessantly with your mouth and your mind. When your mouth is tired, let the mind begin. Again, when the mind is tired, then with the mouth. Just do not stop. When praying, keep your mind from imagining anything, but pay attention only to the simple words of the prayer.

Saint Joseph the Hesychast
