Using Sleep as a therapy.
September 10th 2006 12:46
On my previous post I've shared a few thoughts about meditation. While meditation can be a conscious healing process, there are a few unconscious methods that can also be used. My personalfavorite is sleeping. Our body can accomplish a great level of self healing while sleeping. The brain "unplug" all the unneeded body routines, slows heart beat and breathing frequency. That allow energy to flow to places where is more needed.
Sleeping is a rather natural healing process. When your body is tired your feel the need to get some sleep. However, we can give a hand to help the healing process. By combiningseveral healing processes, we can maximize sleep healing power. For instance, we can use scented candles or aroma burning in the room while we sleep. If you get some pine aroma, you may enhance lung healing. I'll write a few words on aromatherapy in some other article.
Let's keep to the more "traditional" approach of sleeping. It's a plain simple process. You just lie down, relax and slowly you fall asleep. Different persons need different amount of sleep. Some need to sleep up to 12 hours, some will get by with 6. Actually, 6 is pretty much he minimum. You can sleep less, of course, but you are not allowing the body to regenerate himself. Instead you're forcing it to get in and out of the "regenerate mode". That can be almost asstressful as no sleep at all. At least every 3 nights you should get a decent full sleep of at least 8 hours. Give you body the chance to regenerate himself.
If you allow natural ways to heal and regenerate, you gain a lot more life quality. You may live longer and more healthy. Sleeping well is aproved way to prevent vascular and brain disease so people, it's not that hard. Just go and get some sleep!
Remember, cure is within yourself. Allow your body to heal and you'll live a happier life.
