"It is said that if we take one thing to be the truth and cling to it, even if truth itself comes in person and knocks at our door, we won’t open it. For things to reveal themselves to us, we need to be ready to abandon our views about them."
-Thich Nhat Hanh (Being Peace)

Interesting study if you exercise intensely within 2hrs before sleep it can negatively impact on it..
Yoga or light walk before sleep doesnt effect good sleep.. Bryan Johnson put different names to his different personalities so he can self talk to himself before bed.. so you dont have loop thoughts in your head that disrupt your sleep.. walk yourself off the anxieties of the day 1 hr before bed.. Im def going to try this to calm myself down to reduce resting heart rest to get the best sleep as possible.
Resting heart rate is a marker of health
Eating earlier before bed, learn to get comfortable with being hungry.. eat dinner 2 hrs before sleep or skip dinner.. intermittent fasting works wonders here.
Wind down routine screens off 60 mins before sleep its an addiction..withdrawal symptoms is common, reading a book, light walk, stop to create fomo, breathing yoga exercises.
No emails after 8pm is going to be my new protocol.
So here I go!!!
If you decide to try this please let me know so we can compare results.. help keep each other motivated..

“It is too difficult to be just what we are.
The thinking mind cannot remain still when holding an image, imagination or picture.
Our body and mind are constantly changing with different images”

Julia Butterfly Hill once said:
"I personally don’t use the word ‘nonviolence.’ Why would we use two negative words to describe a very positive movement? Why would we choose to define ourselves by what we’re against instead of what we’re for?
Nonviolence is the people’s way to try to articulate ahimsa, which is better defined as: ‘To live so fully and completely in love that there’s no room for anything else to exist,’ which is much more powerful. It gives me goose bumps every time I say it!
Ahimsa is to breathe so much oxygen into love that there’s not enough oxygen for the fire of hatred to exist. That to me is revolution; that to me is activism".

This stunning crystal was formed by water
after receiving our collective prayer.
Waters from around the world were united,
and as people joined in prayer,
the water responded with breathtaking beauty.
Even the water's COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) levels changed —
clear evidence that prayer and intention
can shift the quality of water itself.
