Sleep - Has Harmed Human Civilization The Most


The things that has harmed the human civilization the most is sleep. The discovery of artificial light has only added to the woes by disturbing the biological clock of human being. (In cities, even the rooster has forgotten to crow at the crack of dawn). Gadgets and applications like computer, mobile and internet has made sleep an interference rather than a necessity.

To maintain good health our body requires performing the following functions: cleaning, maintaining and repairing.  Sleep plays a very vital role in the function of repairing.

A baby in the womb virtually sleeps throughout the 10 lunar months (280 days) of gestation. The baby’s whole body is being created during this time of deep sleep.  A new born sleeps for long hours because its body is still growing...18 hours...14 hours and in the end as it grows it settles to around eight hours. The sleep hours of an old man keeps reducing to five, four and even three hours because the growth of the body has stopped.

Latest researches indicate that there cannot be one fixed time for everyone to wake up. Each person has his own bio-rhythm to follow. Within twenty-four hours, for about three hours, the body temperature of each person goes down.  And those three hours are the hours of deepest sleep. If a person is woken up during this period which whole energy gets disturbed and he will have a non-productive day.

Normally, it is all right for everybody to wake up with the rising sun. The rising sun raises the body temperature.  However, one person’s body may get warmer sooner than the other...so one will wake-up at 6:00 am while the other will wake-up an hour later. So, each person should find out the right wake-up time for them.




For right sleep
a)     Understand your biological rhythm. (check links below)
b)    Eat light (follow the adage: breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper)
c)      Do not sleep immediately after eating.
d)     Sleep like a baby – deep abdominal breathing that allows you maximum oxygen.
e)     Make peace with your loved ones…do not carry anger or resentment to bed.

During sleep our body’s metabolism slows down and our cells are getting recharged, muscles and tissues are repaired and you wake up feeling rejuvenated and bounding with energy – Alive!

Historical Statistical Data on Success Of Homeopathy - Epidemics & Pandemics (Homeoprophylaxis)

Homoeopathy has a long and successful history of its use in epidemics and pandemics. The protocol is based on individualisation based on the mental-emotional makeup, physiological and physical symptoms of the individual. Homoeopathy avers that the 'vital force' or the immunity of the individual is the key to ward off illness and when this is deranged a person falls sick. It advocated lifestyle changes even while taking homoeopathic treatment  (Letter to the patient on cheerful methods of life) Also Read:  Your Immune System A Time-Tested Vaccine Against Coronavirus However, in the case of an epidemic, a remedy is prescribed when the remedy's proving symptom mirrors the symptom-complex exhibited by the majority of those infected by the actual pathogen. A remedy thus worked out is said to present the ' genus epidemicus ' of the disease. This remedy acts as a preventive (prophylaxis) among the majority or modifies to a milder form among the res...

Cell - Energy - Cancer

This post is going to be very fascinating, discussing Cell, Energy & Cancer. According to www.thefreedictionary.com the definition of electric cell is A device, such as a battery, that is capable of changing some form of energy, such as chemical energy or radiant energy, into electricity.  And that of electric battery   - a device that produces electricity; may have several primary or secondary cells arranged in parallel or series (underlined emphasis added). This definition has direct co-relation to the physiology of all living being. We are made up of cells, with each cell undergoing a physical and chemical process that produces energy.  A collective action of the cells can be equated to electric battery.( http://goo.gl/5aF9b ) All life is energy. Every nerve impulse in your body is an electric current. Every cell in your body is a mini-battery pumping out 70-90 millivolts — when healthy. When ill our cell energy is lowered (40-50 mill...
