Fr. Thomas Hopko)

“We, Orthodox, would say make some prostrations when you pray: kneel down; bend over; bow down, use your body. As St. Ephraim said, ‘If your body is not praying when you’re praying, you’re not really praying.’ Prayer is not just an activity of the mind and heart. It’s an activity of the whole person.” (Fr. Thomas Hopko)
