I am considering becoming a monk. : r/OrthodoxChristianity
If you want to be a monk that doesn’t mean you should take a smaller workload in school. The opposite actually.

How do Orthodox monks live so long despite going against what science says. For example, many Orthodox monks sleep for less than 4 hours a day (great schemas basically sleep for only 0.5-2 hours per day and can still live over 80).

I am fascinated with Great Schema monks. Especially how they strive to be like the angels. Obviously they do a great deal of prayer and fasting.
