Daily Routines and Our Nervous System

 ๐Ÿ’ŸDo you know the best time of day is the best time for you to write? ๐Ÿ’Ÿ

๐Ÿ‘‰Our nervous systems are quite particular about our routine and about what we do to our body.  Sitting for too long can create havoc with our muscles and tendons.  Do you have an office job that makes you sit for many hours at one time?

๐Ÿ‘€When we first wake up it is our eyes that pop open, but our bodies require motion and stretching to restart properly. 

๐Ÿ’ค๐Ÿ’ค๐Ÿ’ค Do you get enough sleep and do you get to bed by 10 p.m. each night?  (I know that these rules may not apply to all because some people work different shifts.  I will help you to figure out a sleeping plan for you if you do have an nontraditional work schedule).

So why is it important to be in bed by 10 p.m.? Our bodies repair itself and requires to be sleeping during that 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. period for REM sleep.  That is the period that our bodies are optimally working to help restore and heal.๐Ÿ’ค๐Ÿ’ค๐Ÿ’ค๐Ÿ’ค

If we rush-rush out the door to our jobs and do not prepare for a steady morning of prayer, reflection, journaling, and/or stretching then our bodies will soon find illness and imbalance.

๐Ÿ’“stretch every morning for at least 15 - 30 minutes

๐Ÿ’œdrink hot water before coffee

๐Ÿ’“reflect and write your thoughts down (nothing official, and it doesn't have to be an official journal; just something to write on to get your thoughts down).

๐Ÿ’œ bathroom time for b.m. evacuation, showering/bathing, oral hygiene, etc...

COMMITMENT is key to success.  By committing to this regime for AT LEAST 30 days will tell  the nervous system  the body and mind is serious about a schedule change.  COMMITTING to 90 days will become a second nature routine because it will become a ***GOOD*** habit.
