Sleeping Part II
Circadian Rhythm. That is the part of your body, also known as the Biological Time. Well, thats what normal people refer to it as. However, the key into getting your circadian rhythm into a certian grove, the key is lighting. You have to get a certain amount of lighting in your day. The whole circadian system works with your body temperature, when you get up, that is when your body knows to raise its temperature, while when you go to sleep the temperature of your body is actualy 2 to 3 degree’s lower thaan normal temps.
So, while getting light into your eyes is one way to get your sleep cycle, you also must keep in mind that you can’t just be looking at a light all day and hope that you sleep better at night. You have to be active as well. The key is the higher your temperature is during the day, the faster it will drop when you try to go to sleep later that day/night. When your temperature drops faster, the better sleep you get. The 2 kinds of sleep that you must be aware of are NREM & REM sleep. in REM sleep, you are regenerating your body, for all sorts of things, thats when you heal your muscles, because this is the time that your body lets more blood flow into the muscles; hence regeneration.
In order for you to sleep good, you need to raise your body temperature atleast one time during the day: this can be done by riding a bike or just playing some sort of sport. The main thing is to KEEP ACTIVE. The more active you are, the better.
