Anyone like to shed some light on significance of meditation during 4 AM - 5 AM hour.I tried, and then I feel sleepy afterwards, I need to take a nap of an hour or more afterwards to recollect my energy. How someone manage the sleep and strength if wake up at 4 am? IP: Logged |

Earlier in life, I would set the alarm to do a 2 A.M. meditation, then go back to sleep. Did that for a really really long time, then stopped.Later in life, 4 A.M. was my prime study time, then prayer and meditation. Around 8am, I'd get my young daughters up to get ready for school, then go to work. To sustain that, at night I'd have the girls ready for bed at 8pm, eating snack (cereal usually), then in bed for 8:30 ~:45pm. I'd vacuum, (which they requested because they liked to hear the sound through their door to help them go to sleep). Would go to bedroom for 9pm, try to be asleep ~9:30pm ~~ 10pm. Was short-on-sleep .. but life was pretty exciting during those time periods. BTW.. Try not to do that to yourself, if you can!! GET your rest. It's like nutrition. What kind of meditation are you doing? IP: Logged |

There are certain signs/planets/body-regions that rule the various hours. You might find it interesting to learn about those, and compare to your own natural cycles (if you're aware of them). Maybe you would find the optimum time for practicing your meditations for YOU? IP: Logged |

Anony!! … If I could stay up 24/7, I would!! Wouldn't it be cool if meditation could replace the need to sleep?I LOVE those early morning hours.. Has an ambiance to it. Something to 'soak' in, and spend time in. At one point in my life, "b.c". {before children!! LOL}, I was up in those wee hours, and loved the sunrise. The air has its own special fragrance during those hours. Used to spend those hours doing what I wanted to, before going to work in the morning. It was like 'owning a Life'!! Was a regular at a 'breakfast diner'. You can make some pretty cool morning acquaintance friends in intimate places like that-- not too large of a place. The waitress knew 'my usual'.. Was a time when I could do some writing too, in my regular booth. There had been a week where (for whatever reason) I went 'missing' from that breakfast routine, and the burly assembly-line factory men and construction workers, demanded to know 'where' I was.. and were glad I was okay!! -- Before that, I didn't even think they had really noticed me. wowwww. That was sooo sweet of them!! IP: Logged |

Tom Campbell at the time a physics student, who helped Robert A. Monroe, along with an engineer named Dennis assisting, in his labs to figure out the best ways to alter human consciousness, writes in his book "My Big TOE [Theory of Everything]", that between college, work, and volunteering helping Monroe he was getting very little sleep, but because he was spending so much time in altered states of consciousness that it helped to make up for the lack of sleep. I found out that towards the end of a 7 day fast, that I needed much less sleep. I suspect that if one balances, and speeds up the vibratory patterns of the body enough, one could transcend the need for sleep. IP: Logged |
