I’ve been reading The Path to Salvation: A Manual of Spiritual Transformation by Saint Theophan the Recluse. If one is able to ignore the fact that the St Herman of Alaska edition is very poorly translated, there are a number of gems to be found.
Just this morning I was reading a “Rule for Struggling with the Passions”, in which Theophan notes the following: “[One’s] main passion draws all passions to itself, just as it binds them near itself, or gives them a point of support. Other passions may be revealed in no other way than by weakening and overcoming this main one.” Now that your susceptibility to the demon of lust has been weakened, it stands to reason—or unreason!—that other sins would begin standing out in starker relief.
Of these newly revealed problems, it seems to me that the “sloth” and “inertia” you mention are going to among those most difficult to deal with, at least at that level of generality. Better that you should focus your energies on specific manifestations of acedia, tackling them one at a time. And a good place to begin, I suggest, is with oversleeping. Staying in bed past the time you had resolved to get up sets a very bad tone for the whole day, strengthening rather than weakening your other negligent tendencies.
I’m unsure what strategies to recommend. I suppose enlisting your wife’s help, asking her to throw a glass of water on your face at the appointed hour, is out of the question! But seriously, are there not other similar goads that could be of service—say, positioning a rather loud and obnoxious alarm clock at some distance from your bed, so that you’re obliged to get clear up and shuffle across the room to shut it off? As with every spiritual problem, the solution often begins with something quite mundane. It’s no exaggeration to say that logistics are half of the Path.
