Guest guest Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 I have often heard that real healing takes place when sleeping but only during the hours between 10pm and 2am. I haven't been able to find out more when looking at sites for Circadia Rhythm. - anyone have any info? I have heard that those four hours are worth more than 10 hours of sleep at other times? Hummmm I have always been asleep by 10pm and usually sleep until 4 0r 5am. It is hard for me to stay awake after 10...which makes me a party pooper...LOL Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 Wow, fascinating...I wake up at 1:30 and at 4:30, this is daylight savings time (or 2:30 and 5:30 in the winter). Have for years and years and years. My regular waking times when I am doing a " normal " waking/sleeping schedule. I am actually a night person and when living that way sleep very soundly during daytime, much more soundly than ever during the dark.

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 now kit that is interesting cause I've started changing from a day person to a nite person... lol and pretty routine (although I am a very lite sleeper....the dog jumps off the bed, I'll usually wake up).. but I usually go to bed around 10-10:30 and it's 11:30 or 12 before I fall asleep and wake sometimes around 1 and then again at 2 or 3.... more often than not...

Most people, if they're waking atall, wake during the Liver(1-3a) or Lung (3-5a) hours. The wakinghour will help confirm a diagnosis of an organ system disharmony.
