  • If you are one of the millions of people who always feels tired, you can blame it on your alarm clock, the industrial revolution and a general lack of understanding about the bodily behaviour. Or, maybe it is because you sleep too long.
    It turns out the human body has an internal clock that is so precise, there are many factors that can cause you to wake up tired.
    One thing that is known for sure - if you are not hitting every sleep cycle, you are not getting a good night's rest.

    If there are 24 hours a day, and our body needs at least 8 hours of sleep, it is imperative that people should only work 8 hours a day and not longer than that! Reserve the remaining 8 hours for our lives, family and friends.

    Wonder about the affect of serotonin. This is made in virtually every plant and animal. It has massive benefits, and it may be directly connected to or helped made by our micro biome in the gut during sleep. It may be so important that it's the reason living things sleep.

  • @deepakkapurvirtualclass

    In the waking state, thoughts come 'automatically' in our minds. For example, i myself don't know what thought will come into my mind say after 10 minutes, 20 minutes etc.
    When thoughts come automatically to our mind, it 'seems' to us that we have consciouly 'thought' them.

  • @harperleigh3732

    My theory has always been that if you have to be woken up by an alarm clock you are not ready to get up. Every time I am woken up by my alarm clock I am exhausted all day. I sleep very well so I just go to bed in time that I will wake up before my alarm goes off.

    • @krishnaSagar69
      @krishnaSagar69 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      when you go to sleep set a timer for 9hrs. So when you wake up, you can check the timer and see how much time you have slept. I do this but it takes time for you as you don't check the timer as soon as you wake up...
