House of correction
"The two dumbbells of the spiritual strength exercise: 1. To do something every day that is for the spiritual good. To impose my will on something I don't do. For example, patience when I am not patient. Calmness, when I am not calm. A gentle face when I'm angry. Suppressing anger, etc. (Because anger evokes distressing and harmful imagery), etc. 2. Not doing something every day that the body desires. For example, getting up earlier than the body would wish. Refusing to eat a good meal just to make the body feel that it is not ordering us, etc."
