Jolting Your Mind Awake Is Dangerous
Very early this morning I was awakened by the jarring buzz of an alarm clock. Clayton was getting up to do some recording while the world was still a quiet place.
I soon got back to sleep, but when I woke up later, I recalled the feeling of an alarming noise piercing through my brain and body.
Don’t know about you, but releasing stress hormones first thing in the morning is not my idea of a good start to the day. A jolt to the system is distressing to your immune system and disruptive to your mind. What’s even more surprising is how many people use their radio or other high decibel sounds to jerk their brain alive nearly every morning.
But try getting my husband to bed earlier, and he might do it 1 in 6 times, remember how good it felt and yet fall right back into his old habits.
Let’s leave the West for a moment and look at what the Maoris of New Zealand do. If a person needs to be aroused from sleep, another Maori helps by first calling in a soft, low tone, then gradually increases the volume until the sleeper is awake.
Why all this care. Because Maoris, like other indigenous cultures around the globe believe the spirit must have time to return to its physical base. There are a lot of mostly Eastern cultures that believe in gentle awakening. The one common theme they have is a deep consideration for the sleeper and his or her mental and spiritual welfare.
Look, I know it’s not possible to hire a Maori to gently awaken you by softly singing in your ear on weekday mornings. But I have some other gentle solutions for you.
Instead of using your alarm -
1. Go to bed earlier so you wake up naturally at the appointed hour.
2. Tell yourself to wake up at the time you want to. This works amazingly well.
3. Have your CD player turn on the gentle ‘Rejuvenation Visualization’ CD at the appointed time and give yourself a peaceful, serene start to the day.
Even at a louder volume, the ‘Rejuvenation Visualization’ CD, one of 5 CDs in The Secret Power of Words and Music, will help your awakening process immeasurably. They’ll be no more feelings of danger and fear because you’ll eliminate morning after morning of shocking your system awake. Don’t underestimate the power of this gentle tool.
In a nutshell, the delicate bridge between our waking and dreaming minds can easily be damaged a little bit more every morning. When you apply gentleness to this very special time of day, the rewards will be great.
Warm Regards,
